For example, I'm using a mp3 player and as I try to delete songs, it shows a message "Failed to delete file". I have faced similar issues in other apps as well. Is there a work around for this? Also here is the obligatory " fuck you google"

Edit : Thanks for explaining everyone. I'll raise the issue with the app developer.

From a security standpoint i prefer apps to , by default, not have free reign access to my phone storage. For example facebook should not be able to access my picture, music or whatever without my explicit permissions.

What should happen is that the app should ask for permissions, and thats what has happened on all my phones. Id see if your mp3 player app needs an update, has incorrect permissions or just flat put has become obsolete. Ive used vlc for a long time on my phone with no issues
( though to be fair, im still on android 13 )
