## Keeps Asking for Accessibility API Permission Even Though It Has Permission

Open HowdyImSWIM opened this issue 6 months ago • 1 comments

Description

The app repeatedly asks for Accessibility API permission even though it already has the permission. When I open the app, it prompts me to grant accessibility permission. Clicking the button takes me to the Accessibility menu. I've tried turning the permission on and off, clearing the cache, but nothing seems to resolve the issue.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the app from F-Droid, and that temporarily resolved the problem.

This issue only started occurring after having the app working for many months. I encountered the issue when I opened the app after it had been idle for some time.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open the app.
  2. App prompts for Accessibility API permission.
  3. Go to Accessibility settings and confirm permission is granted.
  4. Return to the app and see that it still prompts for permission.

Expected Behavior

The app should recognize that it has the Accessibility API permission and function normally without repeatedly asking for it.

Actual Behavior

The app continues to prompt for Accessibility API permission even though the permission is already granted.

Environment Details

  • Device: Samsung Galaxy S10e
  • OS: Android 12
  • Root Status: Non-rooted
  • App Source: F-Droid

Possible Solution

Uninstalling and reinstalling the app from F-Droid temporarily resolves the issue.

Additional Context

This issue was not present until recently, after the app had been functioning correctly for many months.
