I'm using permission_handler package to ask for read permissions for storage in my app everything is working fine in debug mode and when i run my code with "flutter run --release" but the problem arises when i export my code as an apk the permissions dialog doesn't appear. i have no idea what I'm doing wrong here please help me out!!
here is the androidManifest.xml
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.edithautotech.edithdisplayrelease">
<!-- io.flutter.app.FlutterApplication is an android.app.Application that
calls FlutterMain.startInitialization(this); in its onCreate method.
In most cases you can leave this as-is, but you if you want to provide
additional functionality it is fine to subclass or reimplement
FlutterApplication and put your custom class here. -->
<!-- Permissions options for the 'storage' group-->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
<uses-permission android:name="com.android.vending.BILLING" />
