0.27 Android R/11 : app doesn't receive image from sendreduced

[tenzap]

I upgraded to android 11 and had a working 0.26 before that

But after upgrade to Android 11 I face this issue.

After having chosen to send a picture to sendreduced, the device asks which app will be the next recipient. I select "Messages" (for SMS) then nothing happens, I get back to the screen where I can select to whom I send the picture (the one I get in the first place). Same problem with an email app such as K-9 mail.

Upgrading to 0.27 doesn't fix it

Device: Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S
With an emulated device Pixel 3A device running API 30, it does work...

May it be a permission problem? Will the receiving app be able to read data stored here /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/mobi.omegacentauri.SendReduced/cache/1630516721806-0/Image2212811651098135911.jpg ?

BTW my android studio 4.1.2 says to add "android.useAndroidX=true" to file gradle.properties

Send Reduced 0.26 is working fine on my Android 11. OnePlus 8T, OxygenOS.

Only use it in combination with PhoneSaver. A test share to Silence SMS worked as suspected.

If it works for me and in your emulated device, issue seems to be with the OS maybe.

I have same issue. The receiving app shows a blank space when called by SendReduced.

Device: OnePlus6T
OS: LineageOS 18
Android version: 11

Figured out. It's permissions issue.
SendReduced requires Files and Media permissions and it was provided by OS.

But I checked the manifest permissions for the app. Everything was fine. Only READ_MEDIA_IMAGES was set to deny or ignore by default. When I changed it SendReduced started working correctly.

Not sure if it's possible to request READ_MEDIA_IMAGES explicitely from SendReduced.
Hope it'll help.

Thanks for the update! Just tried and it seems setting the permission worked for me, now, when I reinstall, even if I don't give the permission it still works... Hmmmmm...
