Write permissions for the device in android 14

In android 14 WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission is not working, So what can be used instead of that permission ?

Solution

  • On Android 14 devices your app by default has write permissions in app specific directories like those from getFilesDir() and getExternalFilesDir() and also in all public directories on external storage.

    Use

    Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(...).
