Also keep in mind that the user (with "native Android capabilities") can only revoke access to entire groups, not to single permissions – so fewer groups mean less flexibility, up to a uselessness of the entire feature.Īccording to the link mentioned above, the following groups have been removed:ĪCCOUNTS, AFFECTS_BATTERY, COST_MONEY, DISPLAY, MESSAGES, NETWORK, PERSONAL_INFO, PHONE_CALLS, SCREENLOCK, SOCIAL_INFO, SYSTEM_CLOCK, SYSTEM_TOOLS, USER_DICTIONARY, WALLPAPER Permissions gone
With Android 6, it is even granted automatically then.

With Android 6.0, a bunch of permissions and permission groups have been removed: Groups gone
