Either .. or the difference in the Android manifest <uses-feature>

Question

I am developing an Android application and need either the hardware function android.hardware.camera.flash or android.hardware.camera.front . I want to assure that this application will be available for smartphones that have a flashlight but no front camera. How can I achieve this?

Thank you in advance

Answer 1

I do not believe that there is a way to explicitly insert a restriction of “either” or “. You can add android:required="false" for both <uses-feature> elements, but then you will get devices that lack both functions.

I want to assure that this application will be available for smartphones that have a flashlight but no front camera.

Have android:required="true" in the android.hardware.camera.flash function and android:required="false" in the android.hardware.camera.front function.
