All: I have an app in the Google Play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ericbt.Vault3).
This app reads and writes files in internal and external storage. It includes the "requestLegacyExternalStorage" flag: <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" /> <application ... android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true" > It targets API 29: android { compileSdkVersion 29 defaultConfig { ... minSdkVersion 15 targetSdkVersion 29 } In the developer console I have a warning about the app's use of broad storage access: https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/10467955 Can someone tell me exactly what will happen to this app, and to users of this app, on May 5, if I don't get it approved for broad storage access? I am hoping that the app will continue to be in Google Play, and that it will still have the same access to storage, for users of all Android versions, and that I will be able to update the app, provided that I don't start targeting a higher Android version. Am I correct? Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
