Question by 0xsven · Jan 22, 2016 at 04:36 PM · androidupdate

Can I remove the Android permission request on Startup in Unity 5.1.4 ?

I am currently using Unity 5.1.4 in my game. On Android 6 Unity is asking for dangerous permissions beforehand, which scares away some of my players.

In Unity 5.2.4 this issue has been resolved:

From the Changelog: Android: Android 6.0 - Ask for any dangerous permission on startup. (739831), (732504)

Unfortunately Unity 5.2 has introduces some performance regressions which prevents me from using this or newer version. I tested all versions until 5.3.1and all of them have the performance issues.

Is there a way to prevent those permissions from being asked?

I have the same problem.

I grant permission when it require but, in recent Unity release, the permission request is automatique on startup.

Some permission is dangerous and associated features are only active for limited users... Why warn everybody for nothnig?

Please, let us choose if we want to activate this feature "Android 6.0 - Ask for any dangerous permission on startup. (739831), (732504)"

Add this parameter into your AndroidManifest.xml:

 <meta-data
     android:name="unityplayer.SkipPermissionsDialog"
     android:value="true"
     />
