List of Android permissions normal permissions and dangerous permissions in API 23? [duplicate]

Question

Which permissions need for requesting permissions at run time of API 23?

Amidase

Google now lists the dangerous permissions here: developer.android.com/guide/topics/permissions/… – Iapetus

in this moment I found that in order to check the protection level for each permission directly from the Android documentation you have to go to: developer.android.com/reference/android/…, e.g. for CAMERA it's developer.android.com/reference/android/… – Faviolafavonian

How authentication and gps/location services? – Lampe

See this link : vogella.com/tutorials/AndroidLocationAPI/article.html or tutorialspoint.com/android/android_location_based_services.htm – Amidase

Wait why is WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE ON THIS LIST. I dont think it is a dangerous permission – Millenarian

The list has read access to your Google developer.android.com/guide/topics/permissions/… WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE is a dangerous permission. – Amidase

WONDERFUL list of dangerous permissions, @Ahmad. Google doesn't show this list, only the normal permissions. I believe it's now necessary to link to a privacy policy when publishing apps that use one of these dangerous permissions. – Checkerwork

list moved here developer.android.com/guide/topics/permissions/… – Genitourinary

Thanks for these lists. One suggestion though: It would be slightly more helpful if the list of dangerous permissions was in alphabetic order. (I was first confused and was thinking you'd missed a permission, and then found it down at the end of the list.) – Boleyn

I find it sad that every developer must now learn this list because Android is too dumb to auto-prompt at runtime when a permission is actually needed. Sadder still that there IS NO LIST of dangerous permissions, except here or in the 10,000 line long file at developer.android.com/reference/android/Manifest.permission – Malaise

@Malaise I was extremely frustrated by this just now, there was a list of this on their documentation but they replace it with a link linking you to their developer docs but it it is not useful because it did not indicate there what is dangerous, from normal etc. – Lampe

Answer 2

The Normal permissions do not directly affect the user’s privacy. If application lists a normal permission in its manifest, then these permissions will be automatically granted by the system upon installation. Some of the most common normal permissions are given below.

Check and change data connection: Include network state, Wi-Fi State, Bluetooth, Internet, etc.
