Android: continuous replicator requires permission ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Using a continuous replicator on Android requires the ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE permission.  Android classifies this permission as "dangerous" which means that the OS will ask the user if she will allow it, on first use.

      Best practice is that an application preemptively requests the permission before it is used.  This allows the app to provide information about why the permission is needed and how it will be used.

      We need to make it clear to our customers that using a continuous replicator will cause the OS to request the permission, unless they do so first.
