I couldn't publish my new released on google play console
this morning. It has shown,
"You can't edit this app until you create a new app release declaring sensitive permissions"
And it does not provide the option to fix. Does anyone know how to fix it?
In my case Google removed my app from production, to be able to submit a new release without using the sms i had to:
This is not the intended behavior based on the email i received from google when my app was removed:
Option 1) If your app does not require access to Call Log or SMS permissions:
Remove the specified permissions from your app’s manifest, or migrate to an alternative implementation, then publish the updated version of your app using the standard release process.
So adding the apk that do not have sms in it should work but it did not until i retained the old one, filled the form, and deactivated the old apk.
