Best practices for building privacy-friendly apps
summary
Android lists concrete changes and actionable replacements: use Play SMS Retriever API instead of SMS permission, prefer Android ID/instance ID over hardware identifiers, and request coarse location when precise GPS is unnecessary. Android 9 enforces no mic or camera access in background, adds a visual indicator, and requires a foreground service for long-running sensor access; call-log permissions are split from phone permissions; build.getSerial requires READ_PHONE_STATE and is banned for advertising; Contacts Provider fields like last-contacted are being deprecated January next year.
