In the past we did request the android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS but in the latest release we have removed this permission in order to be compliant with google's new policy.
Few days ago, I see this warning in the play console:
I was surprised because I thought we already have a compliant app. Looking through play console tabs, I see under Release Management -> Artifact Library -> Active artifacts, tab that we still had an old apk that was active and it did contain the RECEIVE_SMS permission.
I managed to disable this old apk and was waiting for the warning to go away.
It didn't go away and I'm not sure what is wrong, if anything.
We do not request any of the restricted permissions, I've checked against the source code.
This is the merged manifest that we have.
Does anybody else have this problem?
