Class not found android.permission.INTERNET Ionic / Android

Issue

When I try to launch my application on my smartphone (Samsung Galaxy J5) after the build, my application instantly crash with the following error:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate application android.permission.INTERNET: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "android.permission.INTERNET" on path: DexPathList[[zip file "/data/app/fr.hardis.VBNantes-1/base.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/data/app/fr.hardis.VBNantes-1/lib/arm, /data/app/fr.hardis.VBNantes-1/base.apk!/lib/armeabi-v7a, /vendor/lib, /system/lib]]

I am using Ionic 5.2 with Angular.

I however tried to add this to my my config.xml:

    <edit-config file="app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml" mode="merge" target="/manifest">
        <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> 
    </edit-config>

Thank you for you help!

Solution

In Android Permissions are added to AndroidMenifest.xml file inside your android platform folder.

If you want your application to use internet go to your

YourProject\platforms\android\app\src\main\AndroidManifest.xml

File and add blow Code:

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