    Hi,

    I have just released an Android app and I am getting a bunch of user emails about the permissions it is requiring. For some odd reason, my Unity build (straight from Unity) is requiring Phone Access:

    PHONE CALLS
    READ PHONE STATUS AND IDENTITY
    Allows the app to access the phone features of the device. This permission allows the app to determine the phone number and device IDs, whether a call is active, and the remote number connected by a call.

    Why on earth would a game engine require that? I am also using Qualcomm Vuforia for access to the Phone's hardware LED light, so there might be something there. Where do I set the user permissions when making Android builds?
