We should get 'READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE' Permission

• Import

// import 
import { PermissionsAndroid } from "react-native";

• Function to request permission

// function to request permission
requestStoragePermission = async () => {
    try {
      const granted = await PermissionsAndroid.request(
        PermissionsAndroid.PERMISSIONS.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
        {
          title: "Permission title",
          message:
            "Permission message",
          buttonNeutral: "Ask Me Later",
          buttonNegative: "Cancel",
          buttonPositive: "OK",
        }
      );
      if (granted === PermissionsAndroid.RESULTS.GRANTED) {
        console.log("You can use the EXTERNAL_STORAGE");
      } else {
        console.log("EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission denied");
      }
    } catch (err) {
      console.warn(err);
    }
  };
