does that issue not exist in the f-droid version? if so, i’m glad there’s a workaround when i try graphene😅

The issue does not exist with the version installed from F-Droid. I think the Play Store version is a different build with the feature disabled as a condition of hosting it on the Play Sore.

The Android app itself still works with the permission, and we released new versions on the external F-Droid store. So the limit is a “purely” Google Play Store-related problem.

This is my question. I didn't read into it much, but isn't the problem a permissions level thing in android, or is this specific to the play store?
