[deadman00069]

🐛 Bug Report

Calling request() method on Permission.notification does not show system dialog and always returns PermissionStatus.denied on Android 13 (Emulator running API: 32 Tiramisu) and (Emulator running API: 33). I also run example project from and still not getting dialog

Expected behavior

Notification permission is requested.

Reproduction steps

Create Android Emulator with API 32 and 33, launch the example project, and request notification permission.

Configuration

Version: 10.0.0

Platform:

• [ ] :iphone: iOS
• [x] :robot: Android

Any news on that?

As you probably may know, android permissions API has changed. Now you need to provide more info to the OS. The latest version of this package actually supports this just by adding some info to android config files:

1. Make sure to have latest version of this plugin ( 10.0.0 works as expected)
2. Add the following line in android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:

  <!-- Permissions options for the `notification` group -->
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS"/>

2. In the file android/app/build.gradle, inside of android block, change compileSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion:

//...
android {
    compileSdkVersion 33
    //  ...
    defaultConfig {

        applicationId "your.app.id"
        minSdkVersion //your sdk min version
        targetSdkVersion 33
        versionCode flutterVersionCode.toInteger()
        versionName flutterVersionName
    }
   // ...
}

3. In case you haven't support latest android versions, android 12 and 13 requires android:exported="true" property in activity just below android:name=".MainActivity"

If someone has the notification permission prompt working, can you please post a screenshot, and flutter doctor?

Several PR's and comments indicate these changes should be sufficient to make the example app work (currently: 051828f0c5b572fde65ef3474af0de29407fe9aa), but they don't seem to help.

SOLVED

My emulator was running an SDK that somehow displays as "Android API 33" but also "API 32."

After I fixed the SDK, the permission dialog works as expected.

Important note

Granting push permission via this plugin may result in a crash due to an unrelated bug in firebase_messaging. ~~https://github.com/firebase/flutterfire/pull/9486~~ EDIT: fix landed in firebase_messaging 13.0.1

[tmaihoff]

Still having this issue with permission_handler: ^10.2.0.

The dialog does not come up at all on android sdk 33 in release mode. Strange thing is, it works fine on debug mode.

It does not make a difference if I add the line to the Manifest or not.

you saved me a tons of time, I try on my emulator for both android 13 & ios 16.1, all is showing notification request dialog

[Xanonymous-GitHub]

Having this issue with permission_handler: ^10.2.0. My compileSDK is 33 and the dialog not shown in both dev mode and release mode.

await Permission.storage.request().isGranted // Not show anything

<!--  These lines added -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

And I found that this problem may caused by android API 33+. I can see the dialog when I build on API 32-.

[premathunga]

change compileSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion: compileSdkVersion 33 targetSdkVersion 33

showing notification request dialog

[AliPunjabi]

I had applied all above configurations but still not getting the dialogue box for permissions. my compileSdkVersion 33 targetSdkVersion 33 added this tag in androidmanifest file: added android exported true permission handler: ^5.0.1 this is my code:

Future<void> getpermission() async {
  final androidInfo = await DeviceInfoPlugin().androidInfo;
  Map<Permission, PermissionStatus> statusess;

  if (androidInfo.version.sdkInt >= 33) {
    statusess = await [Permission.notification].request();
    print('$statusess');
  }
}

I am getting permission status un determined on print

[Xanonymous-GitHub]

Seems this is caused by the new introduced Android API level 33 storage permission policy: Granular media permissions.

That means the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE can not be directly requested when api version >= 33. We should request one of READ_MEDIA_IMAGES, READ_MEDIA_VIDEO, and READ_MEDIA_AUDIO for accessing the app-scoped storage.

In this case, since the permission_handler: 10.2.0 (maybe) not implement this change yet, we should request the following permissions by ourselves:

-  Permission.storage,
+  Permission.videos, // READ_MEDIA_IMAGES & READ_MEDIA_VIDEO
+  Permission.audio, // READ_MEDIA_AUDIO

And in the AndroidManifest.xml, do this change:

-    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
-    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
+    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_MEDIA_IMAGES" />
+    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_MEDIA_VIDEO" />
+    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_MEDIA_AUDIO" />
+    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
+        android:maxSdkVersion="32" />
+    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
+        android:maxSdkVersion="29" />

When one of these permissions is granted by user, the App seems ok to access its storage.

@Xanonymous-GitHub Very thanks!!! the solution is add the new permissions: And request in the function of library:

pd: i develop from react-native but that solution fix my error.

[AbishekPerera]

Actually, I am facing the same problem. The dependency seems to be working correctly, but the permission dialog does not appear in debug mode or any emulated environment, only on a real phone.

In my case, I built an APK and tried it on my Samsung phone. The app is showing the notification permission dialog to ask for permission.

Here are the relevant sections from my manifest:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS"/>

And here are the dependencies listed in my pubspec.yaml file:

firebase_core: ^2.8.0
firebase_messaging: ^14.3.0
permission_handler: ^10.2.0

[dubocr]

Some package limits READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission until sdk 29 only, to make sure permission are set in manifest for sdk 30,31 and 32, you could try :

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" tools:replace="android:maxSdkVersion" android:maxSdkVersion="32"/>

[shoebsultan]

@AbishekPerera thank you so much! changing the version of permission_handler which is given below worked for me

permission_handler: ^10.2.0

[mvanbeusekom]

I have tested the behaviour in the initial post (regarding the "notification" permission) on my Pixel 7a (in both release and debug mode) and the permission seems to work fine. Below are two screenshots, one showing the dialog, second showing the granted permissions after pressing allow:

I have used the example application to test (without any changes).

Tested with permission_handler version: 10.4.3
