A list of all Android permissions
At my company (MixRank), we do static analysis on apps for business intelligence. We&#x27;ve collected lots of data on permissions, SDKs, integrations, frameworks, etc. If anyone has any interesting queries they&#x27;d like me to run, I can give it a shot.<p>Here&#x27;s the most popular permissions we&#x27;ve identified:<p><pre><code>                            permission                         |  apps   | pct_apps
