Android system above 6.0 fails to write SD card permission

As shown in the figure, the read and write permissions of SD card are declared in mainfest file, and the error is still reported:

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


For Android version 23.0 and above, you should not only set the above permissions, but also authorize the SD card where you have read and write operations. The following is a public class:

import android.Manifest;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.pm.PackageManager;
import android.support.v4.app.ActivityCompat;

public class PermisionUtils {

    // Storage Permissions
    private static final int REQUEST_EXTERNAL_STORAGE = 1;
    private static String[] PERMISSIONS_STORAGE = {
            Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
            Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE};

    /**
     * Checks if the app has permission to write to device storage
     * If the app does not has permission then the user will be prompted to
     * grant permissions
     *
     * @param activity
     */
    public static void verifyStoragePermissions(Activity activity) {
        // Check if we have write permission
        int permission = ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(activity,
                Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);

        if (permission != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            // We don't have permission so prompt the user
            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(activity, PERMISSIONS_STORAGE,
                    REQUEST_EXTERNAL_STORAGE);
        }
    }
}

Then call directly where authorization is needed:

verifyStoragePermissions(this);

this refers to the current Activity. The following results will appear when the program runs:

After clicking ALLOW, the program obtains the SD card read and write permission, even if you put the
verifyStoragePermissions(this); statement is deleted. As long as the application is not uninstalled, the permissions still exist.
