Allows applications to access information about networks.
Allows applications to access information about Wi-Fi networks.
Allows a regular application to use android.app.Service#startForeground Service.startForeground
No longer enforced.
Allows applications to open network sockets.
Allows an application to call killBackgroundProcesses.
(signature privileged development appop retailDemo)
Allows an application to collect component usage statistics Declaring the permission implies intention to use the API and the user of the device can grant permission through the Settings application.
Allows an application to read from external storage. Any app that declares the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission is implicitly granted this permission. This permission is enforced starting in API level 19. Before API level 19, this permission is not enforced and all apps still have access to read from external storage. You can test your app with the permission enforced by enabling

Allows read only access to phone state, including the current cellular network information, the status of any ongoing calls, and a list of any android.telecom.PhoneAccount registered on the device. Note: If both your ' minSdkVersion and ' targetSdkVersion values are set to 3 or lower, the system implicitly grants your app this permission. If you don't need this permission, be sure your ' targetSdkVersion is 4 or higher.
New version of GET_TASKS that apps can request, since GET_TASKS doesn't really give access to task information. We need this new one because there are many existing apps that use add libraries and such that have validation code to ensure the app has requested the GET_TASKS permission by seeing if it has been granted the permission... if it hasn't, it kills the app with a message about being upset. So we need to have it continue to look like the app is getting that permission, even though it will never be checked, and new privileged apps can now request this one for real access.
Allows an application to receive the ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED that is broadcast after the system finishes booting. If you don't request this permission, you will not receive the broadcast at that time. Though holding this permission does not have any security implications, it can have a negative impact on the user experience by increasing the amount of time it takes the system to start and allowing applications to have themselves running without the user being aware of them. As such, you must explicitly declare your use of this facility to make that visible to the user.
Allows using PowerManager WakeLocks to keep processor from sleeping or screen from dimming.
Allows an application to write to external storage. Note: If both your ' minSdkVersion and ' targetSdkVersion values are set to 3 or lower, the system implicitly grants your app this permission. If you don't need this permission, be sure your '>getExternalFilesDir and getExternalCacheDir. If this permission is not allowlisted for an app that targets an API level before Q this permission cannot be granted to apps.
