Kodular Fenix 1.5.6 Bug Tracker

The Download component incorrectly requests WRITE permission also on Android 11+.

Since a file is downloaded to the Shared folder /Download, no storage permissions are required on Android 11+.

Canvas permissions:

Screen Orientation Quick Flip


  • Tested on Redmi Note 7 (Android Version 10)

  • Auto-Rotation property was also locked.

  • Screen Orientation was set to Portrait in designer section.

  • Flipping only occurs when holding in landscape position, it works properly when holding in portait position. (This behaviour not observed in apps created with Android Studio)

Good to hear that. Can we definitely count on that?

And, as I said before, the File component should always declare both storage permissions (READ/WRITE) in the Manifest. WRITE permission only up to Android 10 (API 29). However, WRITE should not (never) be requested on devices running Android 11+.

Or even better: Storage permissions should always be declared this way in the Manifest on all Android versions!

I have tested the fix with a broken project on my local instance of Kodular. Because workspaces fail to load as soon as malformed blocks are encountered, corruptions won’t be saved in our servers. Effectively, we’re still storing the pre-1.5.5 version of the affected blocks workspaces.

Is it really asking too much to get a short answer/feedback from the Kodular team on my suggestion?

How about if we could test it on the test (beta) server beforehand?

Sound Recoder - bug

This simple app doesn’t work with the APK on Android < 11, because WRITE permission is not declared in the Manifest.

So again, for the fourth time:
:exclamation: Declare READ on all android versions and WRITE up to Android 10.

Video Player - bug - Play from assets

The Video_Player doesn’t play videos from the assets with the APK.

This bug is still present since July 2019. :upside_down_face:

Many storage permission bugs / issues can be fixed if these permissions are correctly declared in the Manifest. Here’s an extension that does it:

Whether the permissions are then automatically requested depends on the respective components and must be checked (with the APK).

So if you found a permission problem, use this extension and report back if the problem persists.

Hi, they removed the return block. "if Load " “if show” for banner . This feedback was important to make the advertisement box visible only if advertisement does not occur errors. If propafganda is not loaded, there is a void in the middle of the app

Please use the Failed To Load block to hide the banner if there was a no fill. We have removed some methods and events previously available in AdMob components to deter click-to-earn apps.

Ok, I implemented this block, where it tries to load the ad once again in case there is an error. or Then for the second time make banner invisible.

Yes, this should work well.

is the error Error 201 After Update 1.5.5 (Camera did not return an Image) - #20 by Anu10 listed on the weekend fix?

Not yet, we’re still working on it
