App permissions

What are app permissions, and how do they work?

App permissions allow your mobile app to request access to a device’s features, such as the microphone, camera, location, contacts, gallery, and more. When users launch the app, a permission prompt appears based on the features enabled in your app.

  • You can enable or disable specific permissions depending on your app’s functionality, whether native or via the in-app browser.

  • While submitting your app to the Google Play Store or Apple App Store, you may be required to provide explanations for how these permissions will be used.

To configure permissions:

  • Navigate to Downloads from the app dashboard

  • Select the app for which you want to set up permissions

  • On the Build configuration screen, turn on the toggles for the permissions your app will utilize.

  • Click on the Build app button to generate your app build.
