I’m using Android 12 phone, also I tried it on Android 11 phone same problem occurred. The permission is automatically denied when i click allow. The app says permission denied. Please help me. It’s not working today, but yesterday it’s working properly. I thing it’s a kodular bug.

Problem using blocks to request permissions
#2

  1. WRITE permission no longer exists on Android 11+ since targetSdkVersion = 30 (Aug 2021).

  2. WRITE permission must be declared in the Manifest so that it can be requested on Android < 11. This means a component or extension that requires (requests) this permission must be used.

  3. There shouldn’t be any way to grant this permission on Android 11+.

So answer which component and/or extension you are using. In any case, however, WRITE is not granted on Android 11+.

Now how can I create folder on external storage, please give me a tutorial i’m new.

I’m also waiting for this answer. maybe there is another way that is an alternative

On Android 11+ you can only create a folder in one of the Shared folders (like /Download or /Documents or /Music. This does not require WRITE permission on Android 11+.

Here is an extension that declares READ & WRITE permission correctly on all Android versions:

Try this APK on your Android 11+ and Android < 11 test devices:
declareReadWritePermissions.apk (5.2 MB)

Manifest:

Use my extension (Download to ASD), download the image to the ASD and move it then to the Shared folder using the TaifunFile extension. Both don’t need any storage permissions on Android 11+.
