When uploading and when about to submit an UE 4.26 packaged apk to the Oculus App Lab, it gives these warnings and I have been unable to find a solution for this that worked so far. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it possible to edit these from the project settings manifest options?
All help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
"Your manifest includes the following permissions restricted by Oculus:
android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
android.permission.ACCESS_MEDIA_LOCATION
Please remove these permissions if they are not needed by your application. If they are needed, you must include justification in the “Notes for the Reviewer” field that appears after you click Submit. Failure to provide justification will result in rejection of your application."
I am having the same issue about the ACCESS_MEDIA_LOCATION permission even if it doesn’t appear in my application manifest.
I tried the UE4 UPL method to remove useless permissions but it doesn’t change anything since the concerned permission node is not into the manifest.
I am currently waiting for my app to be validated and published by Meta/Oculus while still having the issue.
I just mentionned it in the publishing notes, we’ll see what they say. Maybe it’s just a bug.
