1. Permission requested:
android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

2. Purpose of use:
Our app requires access to manage device storage in order to download, store, and play audio files. These files are saved on external storage so that users can access their content securely even when offline.

3. Core feature dependent on permission:
The following core user-facing features require all files access:

Downloading audio files to external storage for playback.

4. Why alternative permissions are not sufficient:
Scoped Storage and standard media access permissions are not sufficient because:

Audio files are stored with non-standard file extensions and cannot be accessed properly via media-only APIs.

The app must manage files across directories to handle encryption, storage, and playback.

Storage Access Framework (SAF) does not provide a seamless experience for bulk downloads and continuous playback.

Commitment to compliance:
We confirm that:

The permission is used only for downloading, storing, and playing audio files, which are the app’s core feature.

No personal data, photos, or unrelated files are accessed.
