Can anybody please let me know how could solve this issue? I couldn't remove the 'READ_CALL_LOG' permission which is require in my project.

Solution

  • Your app can not declare READ_CALL_LOG permission in Manifest unless it was a dialer app.

    If you feel, your app's major functionality depends on READ_CALL_LOG permission, you must fill the declaration form explaining why you need this permission.

    If your request is accepted, your app will be allowed to use the permission.
