android-app manifest(5) - API 23

>

<uses-library
android:name="string"
android:required=["true" | "false"] />

》

<uses-permission android:name="string"
android:maxSdkVersion="integer" />

》

However, the permission is required for API level 18 and lower. So you can declare that this permission is needed only up to API level 18 with a declaration such as this:

<uses-permission
android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
android:maxSdkVersion="18" />

This way, beginning with API level 19, the system will no longer grant your app the

WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

permission.

This attribute was added in API level 19.
>

<uses-permission-sdk-23 android:name="string"
android:maxSdkVersion="integer" />

> Specifies that an app wants a particular permission, but only if
the app is running on a device with SDK version 23 or higher. If the device is running SDK version 22 or lower, the app does not have the specified permission.

For more information on permissions, see the Permissions section
in the introduction and the separateSystem
Permissions API guide. A list of permissions defined by the base platform is available at

android.Manifest.permission

.

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="integer"
android:targetSdkVersion="integer"
android:maxSdkVersion="integer" />

android.appwidget

package
was introduced with API Level 3. If an application uses that API, it must declare a

android:minSdkVersion

attribute with a value of "3".
