The app will request the above permissions when you use the corresponding functions, and you can choose whether to grant them. If your phone's system version is earlier than Android 6.0, you may be unable to enable or disable permissions manually. We recommend updating your phone system. Note: Updating your operating system will not automatically change the permission settings of the installed app. To reset these permissions, uninstall and reinstall the app.
