Application asked permission to resources that not even selected

Hi,
In my application I selected under App Setting Android Permissions the following permissions:
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE
INTERNET

While checking AndroidManifest.xml i can see that indeed only those 2 are selected:
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET

But - while installing the application its asked permissions for Storage, account, location contacts, gps (accurate and network) audio, camera.

From where those options comes and how they can be removed?

One more issue that I identified now:
After I remove the permission to the 2 above the application not catch Offline event anymore (although ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE permission exists)

Application shared, Name: SuvaIsraelUpgrade

Thanks!

No, you missunderstund me :) i selected only 2 permission as above but while installing the application i can see other permission.
Even more than that, while have Internet and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE permission - offline event to fire although above permission monitor it.
Please open my application, select only internet and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, chexk the manifast file, you will see only those permission, but while installing the installer will show many other as describe in my initial issue description, please also chexk why with those permission ofline event not fire.

Thanks

Thanks! please consider the 2 issues as part of this case (additional permission that was not selected and the fact that ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE not take any affect).

Hello,

Seems that you have some plugins enabled. Some Cordova plugins require android permissions to work.
Solution is to open App Settings Cordova plugins and uncheck all unused plugins. This should help to take away app permissions.
