---------------------------------
Summary: Camera Plugin, Kindle Fire and Android Permissions
incompatibility
Key: CB-13407
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13407
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: cordova-browser
Reporter: Mark Watkins
Assignee: Jesse MacFadyen
I'm using the Camera plugin and porting a working Android project to Kindle
Fire (FireOS). When submitting to the Amazon store, their compatibility tester
fails for most recent devices because it states that my manifest file requires
the android.hardware.camera.autofocus permission, but that recent devices don't
support that permission. So far as I can tell, the plugin does not specifically
request this permission, however according to Android docs, the autofocus
permission is "implied" by default when the camera permission is requested.
([https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-feature-element.html#permissions](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-feature-element.html#permissions))
I am working around this at present by manually adding
(https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-feature-element.html#permissions)
to my AndroidManifest.xml file, but I'm wondering if the plugin itself should
explicitly declare this permission not required, so that most recent Kindle
Fire devices can be supported out of the box?
