The following permission requirements apply when working with the Vivox Android SDK:
  • Required 
    • android.permission.INTERNET
      : Allows communication with Vivox servers       
    • android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO
      : Allows microphone access       For more information, refer to the Android developer documentation on requesting app permissions.
  • Recommended 
    • android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS
       
    • android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE
      : Allows access to network information       
    • android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE
      : Allows access to Wi-Fi information       
    • android.permission.BLUETOOTH
      : Allows access to Bluetooth devices on Android versions earlier than 12       
    • android.permission.BLUETOOTH_CONNECT

These permissions will be given by default to your app after it is compiled with the Vivox SDK. If you need to remove an optional permission, for example android.permission.
BLUETOOTH_CONNECT
, you can add the permission tag to your application 
AndroidManifest.xml
and then specify 
tools:node”remove”
to ensure that it is not included: 
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH" tools:node="remove" />
