Recent CallLog & SMS permission policy update + monaca: need help



  • Hello,

    The recent october play store policy update will limit which apps are allowed to request Call Log and SMS permissions. I received an email from playstore saying my app is affected.

    I’m developing a cordova based app and I never use nor request a RECEIVE_SMS permission. I used “QuickLookAPK” from github to kind of inspect my app and also searched through the whole file system - to see if my app or any of its plugin dependencies requests that permission but I was not able to find any.

    Anybody else facing this? I’m not sure yet how to find what is/can possibly turn out into requesting the receive_sms permission.

    Any help would be great!
