How to remove READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission from merged manifest #960
Description
How to remove READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission from merged manifest? I tried <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" tools:node="remove" />. But playstore is denied on production because of READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission. My Application is targetting on Android 13. I need only Take picture function.
My application's status is removed by Google now. Need to fix this urgent.
