How to use status folder for WhatsApp status saver app in android 11 storage

0 votes
I  made a WhatsApp status saver app.

 But in android 11, Google introduced scoped storage, I'm not getting status of the user.

 For that I have used MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE but with this I can't publish the app in Google play.

How to do that ?

You can request the user to give permission to the WhatsApp status storage folder.

private void checkWhatsAppPermission(){
    // Choose a directory using the system's file picker.
    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT_TREE);
    // Optionally, specify a URI for the directory that should be opened in
    // the system file picker when it loads.

    Uri wa_status_uri = Uri.parse("content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/tree/primary%3AAndroid%2Fmedia/document/primary%3AAndroid%2Fmedia%2Fcom.whatsapp%2FWhatsApp%2FMedia%2F.Statuses");
    intent.putExtra(DocumentsContract.EXTRA_INITIAL_URI, wa_status_uri);
    startActivityForResult(intent, 10001);
