Nice work! 😎

I didn't find anything of concern

Risk: 🟢 Low

Risk analysis

The change adds a camera permission to the AndroidManifest.xml file. The blast_radius is low because it affects only the Android app's manifest and its ability to request camera access. Reversibility is minimal since adding a permission can be easily rolled back. Operational risk is slight due to potential deployment or runtime behavior changes related to permissions, but no complex logic or external dependencies are involved.

Suggestion: Declaring the CAMERA permission without also declaring android.hardware.camera with android:required="false" can cause Android distribution tooling to infer that camera hardware is mandatory. This may exclude camera-less devices from installation even though the application provides non-scanning functionality independently of the scanner. Add an explicit optional camera feature declaration so the permission remains available when hardware exists without filtering compatible devices. [api mismatch]

Severity Level: Major ⚠️
- ❌ Camera-less devices may be excluded from application installation.
- ⚠️ QR scanning remains unavailable without camera hardware.
- ⚠️ Generate, history, and settings features unnecessarily lose reach.
