Question by Lyetnel · Aug 09, 2018 at 08:08 AM · android asset asset store android-manifest assetstore

Is it normal that an Asset needs to have provider section in AndrodManifest.xml ?

Hi there. First time developing for android, so bare with me.
I downloaded a free/open source asset from assetstore for accessing device camera and the asset's readme instructed me to change android manifest.xml with provider. And the provider section came with pre-filled name,exported and granturipermission section. I had to fill authorities.
Never done this before so my question is , is it safe by any means to do modifications like this to android manifest ? Thanks.

PS: Asset does not work without the correct android:name section.
