I was asked to make a quick tutorial.

On how to enable overlay and how to enable all storage permissions

Nowadays, most people are not aware Mod Menu mods requiere overlay permission to properly work.
Most modders make it so that you are asked to enable it the first time you open the modded apk.
However, on some games this might not be fully possible, making you encounter crash/menu no displaying. Hope this tutorial is useful for such cases:

The following tutorial is tested with a Android 12 device

If your device looks different or you can't properly follow this tutorial, then search on the internet "Enabling Overlay Permission (YourDeviceType)"

Game i used for this example

I have done it myself 2 times in row and got 2 times a working result !!

Be sure to follow every step !!!


First of all after you installed the mod apk,
Go to the Settings app of your phone and scroll down until you find this.

Tap on that button, And scroll down until you find the game you downloaded from platinmods.com.

After you found the app you just installed tap on the apk.
Then the following screen will give you this option.

Now tap on "Permissions"
At first the app has no permissions accepted
As you can see below

Tap on both Files and media, Location.
Be sure to Allow all.
The result will be this.

Now that you have done the permissions you also need to enable the overlay.
First tap on the back button once you will see again the App Info
Scroll down till you see Appear on top

Now if you tap the back button once you will see that Appear on top is ON

Now you can close your settings app
And start the MOD you just downloaded again, if you followed every step of my tutorial
This will be the result
