Hello! I use Kodular only to generate the APK for a web application I created on a no-code platform. The problem is that Kodular is preventing users from attaching files. When I click “Send a photo,” nothing happens. However, if I open the app directly in the browser, it works normally and the app opens the device’s files, allowing me to send images.
I think it’s some permission I need to grant or something. Can anyone help me?
Hi Tudo,
Try this extension,
But i just wanted to let you know that I tried attaching files on several websites and was able to do it without any problems.
So, the issue might be in your code.
Sorry, I’m new here and I’m a bit lost.
I already installed this extension, but it still didn’t work. I’ll send you a screenshot.
Can you help me?
Sure,
I tried creating a site with Glide and added a file picker, I confirm the file uploads correctly. However, if the issue is related to a misconfiguration on Glide’s side, this wouldn’t be the right place to discuss it.
Thank you for your help, but I really don’t think the problem is with Glide. When I open the link in the browser, it works normally (as shown in screenshot 1), but when I open the same link through Kodular, it simply doesn’t work (screenshot 2 - Even clicking it several times doesn’t open the option to access files or the camera).
I think I’m missing some permission or something.
So when you click on ‘Fotos and videos’, nothing opens?
I tried with two different devices and I’m always able to upload the photos.
I’m starting to think the problem might be with your file manager.
I just tested it on another device from another brand. But it’s still the same on both. I can open the device’s files normally through the browser, but when I try to open them through kodular, nothing happens.
I’m so sorry, but I honestly don’t know what it could be 
Let’s see if anyone else can find a solution.
I’ve tried everything here, but it really seems hopeless.
Anyway, thank you very much!
Kodular apps need storage permissions to access files. Try adding the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions in your Kodular project. Also, use the “Ask For Permission” block at app startup. This should fix the file attachment issue.
Did you ask for READ_MEDIA_IMAGES permission?
What about providing a screenshot of your relevant blocks?

I think I’ve identified the problem.
When I disable the “Use Location” option, the app can access the device’s files. However, if you have this option enabled, it can’t do both at the same time.
Is this a platform bug?
Is there a workaround?
By default, “use location” is disabled.
What are you using it for?
My Glide app also needs to use the user’s current location for some functions, you know?
If I disable “Use location,” the device’s files open normally; the app prevents access to the user’s current location.
On the other hand, if I enable “Use location,” Kodular prevents the app from accessing the user’s device’s files.
Can you help me with this issue?
No, in fact, I asked to see if it was necessary 
I found a 2020 topic with the same problem but no solution
Is that it is difficult because on the various devices that I tested in I did not detect any problems.
I am investigating 
Thank you in advance.
And I’ll be waiting. If you can find a solution, I’d be very grateful.
I’ve tried every way to solve this, but I really can’t, and it’s essential for my project to have both functions working.
Since you used Glide, I don’t know how much you can manipulate the code.
However, if possible, you could disable use location and instead pass the localization to the WebViewer through EvaluateJS.
Or try other extensions.
I’m a complete beginner, so I don’t know how to do this. But I’ll try to find someone who can help me.
Thank you very much anyway!
I’ll propose a solution in DM since it’s a bit off-topic.
