hi

is there a way to ask for runtime permissions when the app installs or updates ?

currently b4a doesn't (as far as i know) show required permissions in google store and it fires the request when first need the permission.

is there a way, maybe in manifest ?, to declare the required permissions so the sore will also list them and when install or update it will be shown and granted ?

thanks

The clue is in the name - runtime permissions...

Check your manifest file that has been generated though, some of them should be declared in there and should show in the Play Store listing for your App, if defined in the manifest file.

No permission is shown during installation when you install the app on an Android 6+ device. This is good as the list of permissions might cause the user to avoid installing the app.

But you can check possible permissions in Google Play.. No? It's at the bottom of the page - App Permissions 'see more' of the App listing or are we talking about something else?

Yes - if you click on the "View Details" link under "Permissions" you'll get a list of permissions the app requires.
