I wanted to fire up the AnkiDroid app on my Android device (which I installed a couple of years ago), and all I get is an error saying: "Please grant AnkiDroid storage permission to continue" and there's no way forward.


I suspect that's because it needs to store the cards and media. Are you unable to grant it storage permissions for some reason?


I don't see any "storage permissions" option. Android 14.

Looks like a bug with AnkiDroid and different Android versions (if the app was installed on a prior version of Android and Android was upgraded). Some workarounds in that thread.


Deleting the old app and all storage associated with it cleared the error.
