android - After adding manage external storage permission, I can not upload APK to google store

Question

I have an application on Google play store, I updated the code to support Android 11 OS, I'm using the storage of mobile by this permission

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
    tools:ignore="ScopedStorage" />

When I try to upload the APK on Google store, this problem appears

Your APK or Android App Bundle requests the 'android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE' permission, which Google Play doesn't support yet.

How can I solve it?

Answer 1

Change the api level to less than 30 because due to covid-19 all permission has stopped. This temporary uploading restriction only affects apps that both target Android 11 (API level 30) and request the All files access permission.
