<p>The default permissions that get added are:</p>
<ul>
<li>android.permission.INTERNET - Required for debug mode.</li>
<li>android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW - Required for debug mode.</li>
<li>android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE - Not required for debug or production.</li>
<li>android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - Not required for debug or production.</li>
<li>android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - Not required for debug or production.</li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li><p>Let's start by removing <code>READ_PHONE_STATE</code>, <code>WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE</code>, and <code>READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE</code> from both production and debug APKs, as it is not required in either. These storage permissions are still not needed if <code>AsyncStorage</code> module is in use, so it is safe to remove from both production and debug.</p></li>
<li><p>Open your <code>android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml</code> file.</p></li>
<li><p>Even though these three permissions are not listed in the manifest they get added in. We add the three permissions with <code>tools:node=&quot;remove&quot;</code> attribute, to make sure it gets removed during build. Note that the package identifier will be different, for below it is &quot;com.myapp&quot; because the project was created with <code>react-native init myapp</code>.</p>

<li><p>Now let's remove <code>SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW</code> from the production APK only.</p></li>
<li><p>Go to the <code>android/app/src/</code> directory. Create a new directory inside this directory, called <code>release</code>. (path: <code>android/app/src/release/</code>)</p></li>
<li><p>Inside this <code>android/app/src/release/</code> directory create a <code>AndroidManifest.xml</code> file. (path: <code>android/app/src/release/AndroidManifest.xml</code>)</p></li>
<li><p>Inside this file paste the following contents. Note, make sure to update your package identifier from &quot;com.myapp&quot; to what yours is.</p>
<pre><code class="hljs css language-diff">&lt;manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.myapp"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"&gt;
&lt;uses-permission tools:node="remove" android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW" /&gt;
&lt;/manifest&gt;
</code></pre></li>
</ol>
<p>That's it. We did not remove the <code>INTERNET</code> permission as pretty much all apps use it. Now whenever you create a production APK all these 4 permissions will be removed. When you create a debug APK (<code>react-native run-android</code>) it will install the APK with only the three permissions removed, and <code>SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW</code> will remain.</p>
