Add This to your Manifest

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

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

And then request premissions in the app like something like this

public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, @NonNull String[] permissions, @NonNull int[] grantResults) {

        if(requestCode == REQUEST_CAMERA){
            if(grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && grantResults[1] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
                try {
                   getImageFromCamera();
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
            else{
                Toasty.error(getApplicationContext(), "Permission Needed.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            }
        }
        else {
            super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
        }
        if(requestCode == PICK_IMAGE){
            if(grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && grantResults[1] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
              getImageFromGallery();
            }
            else{
                Toasty.error(getApplicationContext(), "Permission Needed.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            }
        }
        else {
            super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
        }
    }
}
