Understanding Permissions​

Permissions on Android are divided into two categories: Normal and Dangerous

  • Normal Permissions: These are granted at installation time and do not require explicit user consent during runtime. They're typically for features that pose minimal privacy risks. These permissions are granted when declared in the Application's xml Manifest file.

  • Dangerous Permissions: These can potentially access sensitive user data or device features. You must request them at runtime to ensure user understanding and control.

Here are a list of the permissions present in Magic Leap SDK API level 29
