How to use permission handler in Android 13?
I've already used this code in AndroidManifest.xml and manually enable it in the system settings but it doesn't work :

Version

10.4.3

Solution :
IN MENIFEST FILE :
with other read permissions for android 13
IN APP LEVEL BUILD GRADLE :
TargetSdkVersion to 32
compileSdkVersion to 33

After Adding permissions in the Manifest, Use the following during implementation to check the Platform and Android Version. There after call the permission to be used based on the Android version.

Future<bool> _requestWritePermission() async {
   if (Platform.isAndroid) {
     AndroidDeviceInfo androidInfo = await DeviceInfoPlugin().androidInfo;
     int androidVersion = androidInfo.version.sdkInt;
     if (androidVersion < 12) {
       // For Android versions earlier than 12
       await Permission.storage.request();
       return await Permission.storage.isGranted;
     } else {
       // For Android 12 and later
       await Permission.manageExternalStorage.request();
       return await Permission.manageExternalStorage.isGranted;
     }
   }
   return false; // If the platform is not Android
 }
