Users expect to see the requested permissions.
- kuschku 5y agoAll these permissions are granted without ever being shown to the user, due to being in the "other" category. If you install this app normally, Android will never ask you for permission, but just silently grant these permissions.

- kuschku 5y agoOn Android 6.0 (2017) and later, there is no permission modal if all permissions are in the "other" category, as they are in this case. Android 6.0 introduced requestable permissions, were critical permissions had to be requested (and could be denied) at runtime. At the same time it removed all modals for non-critical permissions.
