Nope

Summary

Developers had trouble with an Android app's AndroidManifest.xml. The issue was with manifest permissions for internet access. The solution was to add the necessary <uses-permission> tags outside the <application> tag in AndroidManifest.xml. They also needed to set the endpoint in appwriteConfig to their PC's local IP address instead of localhost to resolve a [AppwriteException: Network request failed] error on the Android emulator. Make sure to configure this setting correctly for self-hosting Appwrite.

So inside the file you add the 2 flags:

Markup

<manifest xlmns:android...>
 ...
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
 <application ...
</manifest>```
