[jira] [Updated] (CB-11689) If a user denies permissions forever, there's no way for them to undo that in the app settings screen

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-11689?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Blake Israel updated CB-11689:
------------------------------
    Description: 
Because the plugin.xml lacks {{uses-permissions}} for {{CAMERA}} and {{READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}}, once a user has denied camera access always, they cannot undo it, even in the permissions setting for the app.

The only workaround is uninstalling/renstalling the app or manually modifying the AndroidManifest.xml to include

{{<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />}}
{{<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />}}

so they can be modified in the application manager settings.
