Android 9 phone crashes when app is launched

Question

My app only crashes on android 9. It works fine on other android platforms . What can be the reasons? I receive the following error:

ui.activities.StartActivity}: java.lang.SecurityException: Call from user 0 as user -1 without permission INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS or INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS_FULL not allowed

Answer 1

Android 9 has new features like rotation, battery saving.. Have you tried getting permission for device rotation from inside of your code? It could be a mistake set it to portrait mode constantly.

Answer 2

Add this android:protectionLevel="signature" in your manifest .

Add Permission

<permission android:name="android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS_FULL" android:protectionLevel="signature"/>
