New Google "Android Photo Picker" Permission

Google has just made a change in policies related to the permissions requested by Apps for access to the House and the Image Gallery of devices, affecting the codes generated by our builder.

Here are in detail:

Our App builder, being a pre-developed module builder, generates the Apps code including by default the READ_MEDIA_IMAGES and READ_E Image gallery or the camera of the device, such as forms requiring image uploads, the Social Wall function in which users are allowed to publish images, etc...

Google now requires the "Android Photo Picker" permission for Apps which require access to the Camera or Image Gallery of the device on time, leaving the READ_MEDIA_IMAGES

Until now the Apps were being approved with the permissions included in our Apps READ_MEDIA_IMAGES and READ_MEDIA_VIDEO simply by informing in the statement why the App.

Warning
Because of this circumstance, our development team is working on an update incorporating that new permission required by Google into the Apps generated with our builder and until then,all codes generated from 12/08/2025 and until the update is released will not lead to access permissions to the Image Gallery or camera of the device.
