The permissions provided by the Android system can be found at Manifest.permission. Any application may also define and enforce its own permissions, so this is not a comprehensive list of all possible permissions.
A particular permission may be enforced at a number of places during your program’s operation:
- At the time of a call into the system, to prevent an application from executing certain functions.
- When starting an activity, to prevent applications from launching activities of other applications.
- Both sending and receiving broadcasts, to control who can receive your broadcast or who can send a broadcast to you.
- When accessing and operating on a content provider.
- Binding to or starting a service.
