I have modified an existing app to fit my needs. It works fine on permissions as long as only one permission is requested. I am using a scan activity that reveals the objects I want to be visible on the scan view. I tried to modify it for multiple permissions with no luck. I am not using the appcompat class. I am simply trying to add if statements to the original permissions method. The single permission version works fine on android 9 and sdk 28 and below but not on android 10 and above. the android scan view on android 10 is blank. I am pretty sure it is due to the permissions required on the advanced android versions. Am I beating a dead horse or can I actually make it work with my current code change?
