<p class="note">

  <strong>Note:</strong> This lesson describes how you implement permissions

  requests on apps that target API level

  23 or higher, <em>and</em> are running on a device that's running Android 6.0

  (API level 23) or higher. If the device or the app's

  <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#target"

  ><code>targetSdkVersion</code></a>

  is 22 or lower, the system prompts the user to grant all dangerous

  permissions when they install or update the app.

  <strong>Note:</strong> Beginning with Android 6.0 (API level 23), users can

  revoke permissions from any app at any time, even if the app targets a lower

  API level. You should test your app to verify that it behaves properly when

  it's missing a needed permission, regardless of what API level your app

  targets.
