<p>Any app that declares the {@link #WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE} permission is implicitly
granted this permission.</p>
<p>Currently, this permission is not enforced and all apps still have access to read from
external storage without this permission. That will change in a future release and apps
will require this permission to read from external storage. So if your
app reads from the external storage, you should add this permission to your app now
to ensure that it continues to work on future versions of Android.</p>
<p>You can test your app with the permission enforced by either running your app on the
Android Emulator when running Android 4.1 or higher, or enabling <em>Protect USB
storage</em> under Developer options in the Settings app on a device running Android 4.1 or
higher.</p>
