pushwoosh-cordova-plugin permissions

[gtsopour]

Going from the com.pushwoosh.plugins.pushwoosh to the latest pushwoosh-cordova-plugin it seems that several new permissions appeared. This will block most probably the Android auto-update for thousand of my users. Is there any suggestion around this topic? Can I remove them somehow?

@wfhm Do you have any suggestion? <permission android:name="com.lg.lglearningcanada.permission.RECEIVE_ADM_MESSAGE" android:protectionLevel="signature" />

<uses-permission android:name="com.lg.lglearningcanada.permission.RECEIVE_ADM_MESSAGE" /> <!-- for Samsung -->

Hi @gtsopour,

No, you are not able to remove these permissions somehow, since such changes will critically affect the operation of our SDK.

@wfhm Thanks for the quick response. I really appreciate that. Do you know if these permissions will affect the auto-update functionality? Because I see that there are critical and non-critical permissions.

@gtsopour,

Judging by the information from the threads below, it seems that every new permission will affect the auto-update functionality.
