FileProvider Not Working with Camera

Question

I\'m trying to make Camera App to store the output to my internal storage. I also understand that third party apps are not able to access the Internal Storage of my applicat

Answer 1

I had a similar issue but later on I find out to have a typo in my code. The typo was in AndroidManifest.xml, precisely into the tag at the line "authorities".

For me,

android:authorities="com.stackoverflow.test.camerawithfileprovider.fileprovider"

doesn't work (when I call the camera instance, the app crashes) but if i delete "file" and replace that string as following:

android:authorities="com.stackoverflow.test.camerawithfileprovider.provider"

my app runs smoothly (the app takes the photo, stores it, and gives back a preview to the activity in the client app).

Does your app also have the same issue ?
