## Android APK installation limitation

The following limitations apply when opening an APK file for installation:
- On Android 8+, your application must have the `ACTION_INSTALL_PACKAGE` permission. You can add it by adding this to your app's `config.xml` file:
```xml
<platform name="android">
<config-file parent="/manifest" target="AndroidManifest.xml" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES" />
</config-file>
</platform>
```

- Before Android 7, you can only install APKs from the "external" partition. For example, you can install from `cordova.file.externalDataDirectory`, but **not** from `cordova.file.dataDirectory`. Android 7+ does not have this limitation.

## SD card limitation on Android

It is not always possible to open a file from the SD Card using this plugin on Android. This is because the underlying Android library used [does not support serving files from secondary external storage devices](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40318116/fileprovider-and-secondary-external-storage). Whether or not your the SD card is treated as a secondary external device depends on your particular phone's set up.
