App permissions

Why does the Android Power BI app require access to the microphone, camera and contacts?

 

I'm surprised no one has asked this yet.

The microphone is used for the "speech to text" annotations feature (when you take a snapshot of a tile, you can add test & drawings on top of it).

The camera is used to scan the QR barcode. The contacts are used to present the list of possible contacts that you would like to share you dashboards with.

 

Hope this make sense now.
