I'm working on an app which contains some scripting support. The scripts executed by this app might require all sorts of permissions in the future, but it's difficult to predict which ones.
Is there a way to request additional permissions at runtime (like iPhone apps sometimes do) instead of specifying them all in advance in AndroidManifest.xml?
Runtime permissions prevent apps from gaining access to private data without a user's consent, and provide them with additional context and visibility into the types of permissions that applications are either seeking, or have been granted.
Apps require access to different components and data on our Android devices to work as intended, and in most cases, we have to grant them permission to do so. In theory, Android app permissions are a great way to ensure our safety and protect our privacy.
Just include all 4 permissions in the ActivityCompat. requestPermissions(...) call and Android will automatically page them together like you mentioned. I have a helper method to check multiple permissions and see if any of them are not granted.
According to the Android documentation:
The permissions required by an application are declared statically in that application, so they can be known up-front at install time and will not change after that.
