One more for the sake of improvement:

To comply with Google Play's Photo and Video Permissions policy please adjust the following requirements by October 31st 2024 (or Jan 22nd 2025, if you have already applied for an extension):

Remove the use of READ_MEDIA_IMAGES/READ_MEDIA_VIDEO permission from all version codes within the submission. This includes both production and testing tracks.
If your app requires one-time, or limited use of photo and video file, remove the permissions and consider using the Android photo picker.
If you need more time to implement, you may use the self-service option to request an extension in Play Console until January 22, 2025.
About the Photo and Video Permissions policy
READ_MEDIA_IMAGES/READ_MEDIA_VIDEO is a restricted permission and apps must only declare this permission if their core functionality requires broad access to all photo or video files on the device. Apps that request this restricted permission are subject to review, and those that do not meet the acceptable use case criteria will be disallowed from publishing on Google Play.

If your app requires one-time, or limited use of photo and video files, you are requested to use a system picker such as the Android photo picker.

TODO:
Offering a fine-tuning for the app permissions in the admin.
