Hi there! It sounds like you're encountering the "editer_msg_declinedPermissions" error in the Song Maker app on your Android device. This message usually points to a permissions issue where the app hasn't been granted the necessary access to function properly.

To help fix this, could you confirm if you recently denied any permissions when Song Maker asked for access? Specifically, it often needs permissions related to storage or microphone if you're recording or saving songs.

Meanwhile, let's try these steps to resolve the issue:

1. Check App Permissions Manually:
- Open your device's Settings.
- Go to Apps & notifications (or just Apps).
- Scroll to find and tap on Song Maker.
- Tap Permissions.
- Make sure all required permissions—especially Storage and Microphone—are enabled. If any are denied, toggle them on.

2. Clear Cache (Optional but helpful):
- In the same Song Maker app info screen, tap Storage & cache.
- Tap Clear cache.

3. Restart the App:
- Close Song Maker fully and open it again.
- Try the action that triggered the error.

4. Reinstall the App (if the issue persists):
- Uninstall Song Maker.
- Reinstall it from the Play Store.
- Open the app and grant permissions when prompted.

Please try these steps and let me know if that clears the error or if you still see it. If the problem continues, we can explore more advanced fixes together!

Thers no storage permission

Thanks for letting me know there's no explicit storage permission listed for the Song Maker app on your Android 10 device. This is actually common because, starting from certain Android versions, the system handles storage access differently and doesn't always present a "Storage" permission as a standalone toggle.

Here’s what I recommend next:

1. Check Other Related Permissions:
Since storage access might be managed under other categories, go to:
- Settings > Privacy > Permission manager (or Apps > Song Maker > Permissions)
- Look for permissions like Files and media, Photos and videos, or Media (these replace storage permission in newer Android versions).
- Ensure that Song Maker is allowed access here.

2. Access to Specific Folders:
Android 10 and beyond sometimes require apps to request access to specific folders. When using Song Maker to save or load files, the app might prompt you for permission to select a folder or grant access — it should trigger a pop-up asking to select a folder or grant access. If you dismissed such a prompt earlier, try to trigger it again by attempting to save or load a file.

3. Clear Permissions and Retry:
If you found any related permissions and they are set to "Deny," try toggling them to "Ask every time" or "Allow." If no explicit options exist, try revoking and re-granting permissions by:
- Settings > Apps > Song Maker > Permissions > Disable any allowed permissions temporarily
- Restart the app and allow permissions again when prompted.

4. App Updates & Android System Updates:
Sometimes apps adjust permissions behavior with new updates, so make sure:
- Your Song Maker app is updated to the latest version from the Play Store.
- Your Android OS has all the latest updates installed via Settings > System > System update.

If the error "editer_msg_declinedPermissions" persists despite these checks, it might be linked to how Song Maker itself handles permissions on Android 10. You could try reinstalling the app to reset any permission requests or contact the Song Maker support team for an app-specific fix.

Please give this a try, and let me know if you see any changes or new prompts when you try saving or loading files! I'd be happy to guide you through the next steps.

Why is Song Maker app not prompting for storage permissions?

Thanks for your question! The Song Maker app might not be prompting for storage permissions explicitly because, on Android 10, Google changed how storage access is handled. Instead of requesting a broad "Storage" permission, apps often use a more specific method called "Scoped Storage," which limits access to certain folders or types of media without needing a general storage permission. This means the app requests access only when you try to save or open a file, often via a folder picker or media selector prompt, rather than at app launch or install.

Also, some apps are designed to work within their own storage area by default, which doesn't require you to grant an explicit permission in your system settings. Instead, when you try to access files outside of the app's private storage, the app triggers a system dialog asking you to select or grant access to that particular folder. If you dismiss that prompt, permission won't be granted, causing errors like the one you've seen.

In summary:
- Android 10 replaced broad storage permissions with a more controlled access system.
- Song Maker likely waits to ask for access during specific file actions rather than upfront.
- If you dismiss the system prompt for folder or media access, the app won’t function properly.

To fix this, try performing an action that requires file access (like saving or loading a song). Watch carefully for any system pop-ups asking you to choose a folder or grant access, and accept those. If you don't see any prompt, try reinstalling the app to reset permission requests.

If the problem persists despite this, let me know, and we can explore additional steps!
