Android camera permission manifest

There is a total of nine dangerous permissions : BODY SENSORS, CALENDAR, CAMERA, CONTACTS, LOCATION, MICROPHONE, PHONE, SMS, STORAGE. For some apps it is normal and expected to request some of these permissions.

An app will ask for permission when it needs something it can’t access without it, and if you choose to refuse, that part of the app will not work . This can have little effect on the rest of the app, or it can be show-stopping and the app won’t work.

Once an app has access to your contact list, it can upload phone numbers, email accounts and other information to an advertising or phishing scam list. If you don’t think an app needs access to your contacts, leave this permission turned off and help protect your family and friends .

Camera Permission – Your application must request permission to use a device camera . Note: If you are using the camera by invoking an existing camera app, your application does not need to request this permission. For a list of camera features, see the manifest Features Reference.
