Location Permission Issues after adding them in manifest file

Question

I am new to android. I was trying to get location details. In the manifest file I have used the appropriate permission, (Access_Fine_Location).

Still when I run the app I get an error saying Client must have access Fine Location Permissions.

My Manifest File :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="androidfactory.rageshkr.com.iamsafe" >

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
        <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />

        <activity
            android:name=".MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" >

            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>

Answer 1

The <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" /> must be outside your <application> tag.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="androidfactory.rageshkr.com.iamsafe" >

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >

        <activity
            android:name=".MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" >

            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>

This is the sample of using the permissions,services,receiver,meta-data in side the manifest file

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="packagename"
