Hello,
I’m having a problem with the permissions of an Android game I developed with Unreal Engine 4. When I package the game as shipping, when I open the game on my phone, there is no permission request screen for accessing files. However, when I test the same game on BlueStacks emulator, the permission screen appears properly.
Details of the Problem:
Game Engine: Unreal Engine 4
Android Version: My phone Android 14
Game Packaging: Packed in Shipping
Permissions: android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and other required permissions are defined in AndroidManifest.xml file
Issue: When the game is opened on my phone, the permission to access files screen does not appear. In BlueStacks, the permission screen appears and gets the permission correctly.
I am sure that the game is not automatically allowed on my phone, and my save system does not work because it is not allowed. When I package the game as development, it does not work on my phone, but it works in BlueStacks
