To find list of permissions used by an installed application in android
The below code not only retrieves the permission , but will also retrieve services , receivers . Be careful on PackageManager tags. This will only fetch you the corresponding information on specific packages .
PackageManager p = this.getPackageManager();
final List < PackageInfo>; appinstall=p.getInstalledPackages(PackageManager.GET_PERMISSIONS|PackageManager.GET_RECEIVERS|
PackageManager.GET_SERVICES|PackageManager.GET_PROVIDERS);
for(PackageInfo pInfo:appinstall){
//PermissionInfo[] permission=pInfo.permissions;
String[] reqPermission=pInfo.requestedPermissions;
ServiceInfo[] services=pInfo.services;
ProviderInfo[] providers=pInfo.providers;
int versionCode=pInfo.versionCode;
Log.d("versionCode-package ",Integer.toString(versionCode));
Log.d("Installed Applications", pInfo.applicationInfo
.loadLabel(pm).toString());
Log.d("packegename",pInfo.packageName.
toString());
if(reqPermission!=null)
for(int i=0;i < reqPermission.length;i++)
Log.d("permission list",reqPermission[i]);
