FileUriExposedException in Android N with Camera [duplicate]

Answer 1

I have also faced the same issue in Android N devices. But i resolved it.

Here is my code which can solve the issue:

 public void launchCamera() {
    Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
        intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, getPhotoFileUri());
    } else {
        File file = new File(getPhotoFileUri().getPath());
        Uri photoUri = FileProvider.getUriForFile(getApplicationContext(), getApplicationContext().getPackageName() + ".provider", file);
        intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, photoUri);
    }
    intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
    if (intent.resolveActivity(getApplicationContext().getPackageManager()) != null) {
        startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CAMERA);
    }
}

After this you need to create a XML folder in res, and in that folder you need to create a xml labeled provider_paths.xml

Code in provider_paths.xml

Later in manifest you need to add the following inside the application tag and make sure that the compileSdkVersion >=24
