Permissions

[jampy]

I added some more permissions to AndroidManifest.xml:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />

However, the PWA is still not able to use GPS or speech recognition (and it does not specifically ask for these permissions).

When I go to the phone settings and open the app permissions I see that the permissions listed above are known, but not granted:

I have no experience with native app development.

What do I need to do to activate such permissions?

I managed to access the camera and audio adding this codes:

In the MainActivy.java file, add this imports

import android.Manifest;
import android.content.pm.PackageManager;
import android.support.v4.app.ActivityCompat;
import android.support.v4.content.ContextCompat;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

Then I write this function:

private void checkAndRequestPermissions() {
        int cameraPermission = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.CAMERA);
        int recordPermission = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO);
        int audioPermission = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS);

        List<String> listPermissionsNeeded = new ArrayList<>();

        if (cameraPermission != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            listPermissionsNeeded.add(Manifest.permission.CAMERA);
        }
        if (recordPermission != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            listPermissionsNeeded.add(Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO);
        }
        if (audioPermission != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            listPermissionsNeeded.add(Manifest.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS);
        }
        if (!listPermissionsNeeded.isEmpty()) {
            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, listPermissionsNeeded.toArray(new String[listPermissionsNeeded.size()]),1);
        }
}

And place this:

checkAndRequestPermissions();

below this:

// Setup App
webViewHelper.setupWebView();
uiManager.changeRecentAppsIcon();

This is to explicitly request these permissions. Which is mandatory from Android 6.0.

And in the AndroidManifest.xml file:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera" android:required="false" />

Sorry for my bad english! I hope helps you
