New Google Policy Support? SMS Retriever instead of RECEIVE_SMS permission #33

As google has made special restriction on SMS and Call log permissions more detail here When will Account kit move to SMS Retriever and HintRequest so that we can remove these permissions. These permissions are anyways a big friction in Sign Up flow.

Hi rishabh876, please see https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2019/01/08/new-google-play-policy-affects-account-kit-permission/ for current status of the SMS permission. We also have decided to not move forward with using the SMS Retriever API at this time.
