Unable to select arbitrary files (PDFs, other file types) for uploading on Android 13

Open akinwale opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

With changes to file access permissions on Android, it's impossible to select arbitrary files (files which are not audio, video nor images) from any device folder. We need to find a solution for this, or ultimately make use of the MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission which requires a special Google review before being published to the Play Store.

I've analyzed the code in PublishFormFragment, and after confronting you it looks like this issue has already been fixed. I confirm that I can successfully select and open in app a .pdf file, so I think this ticket can be closed.
