Microphone permission

Question

When installing the app I programmed, it requires the permission "to use the microphone". I don't however specifically ask for it in the manifest, what I have is the camera permission.

Is that where the microphone-permission is coming from?

Answer 1

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />

outside the application block actually solved it!

...
    </application>


    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" /> 
</manifest>

Answer 2

If you are using any kind of audio recording functionality in your application then you are supposed to provide RECORD_AUDIO permission in your manifest file as below:

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />

Answer 3

in your manifest use this

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />

Then to request the permission do this:

if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(),
    Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {

ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(getActivity(),
        new String[]{Manifest.permission.RECORD_AUDIO},
        REQUEST_MICROPHONE);

}
