Apps Requesting Permissions

starlord@lemm.ee to Android@lemmy.world – 26 points –

So I installed this app that wants permissions to my photos and/or files so I can upload a picture. Totally normal. I want to know if it's possible to specify that these permissions are only granted for a specific directory/folder, rather than the whole device. It doesn't seem like it, but curious if there's a way to do this. Any suggestions are welcome.

GrapheneOS/DivestOS has that. It's called Storage Scope. I dont know if it's possible in stock Android.

Kindof, using Storage Isolation (proprietary app made by Rikka, the same developer that made Shizuku)
