Hi! We’re looking into using the “Android Permission” plugin for our Android dev. Just wondering which versions of Android this plugin supports?

For example, we may want to use it to request OS notification permission for our game. For Android, the OS notification permission mechanism varies greatly across versions. It’ll be helpful to know which versions of Android we can use this plugin for. Thanks!

Hi Cherie,

I’ve tested the plugin and it appears to work on the range of supported Android versions by UE. Note however that the application using this plugin is still required to add the <<uses-permission android:name=“android.permission.***” /> to the generated application manifest. Otherwise any permission requests will be automatically denied by the system.

Best regards.

Based on the Android systm APIs used, yes it will.

Best regards.

Thank you for the info! Does that mean it supports up to Unreal min Android OS version (version 8)?
