Open App Permissions on Android programmatically?


I want to show all apps and permissions via list from the system to the user. I know that this setting available for API >= 23 in different locations.

For API >= 26 it is on:

Settings / Apps & Notifications / Advanced / App permissions

For API >= 23 it is on:

Settings / Apps / Configure Apps (Setting menu item) / App permissions

Is there any way to open App permissions screen using intent?

Solution

  • Maybe you will be lucky and someone can prove me wrong, but it seems on recent version of Android you are limited to App Settings only - no direct access to App Permissions via Intent.

    I believe this is related to Security and Automation which would also align with Googles decision to show an 'overlay detected' warning when trying to request permissions as outlined on this non-Google article
