Hi Peoples,
To use Explorer on an Android device, anyone else noticed it is mandatory to allow access to contacts?
Cheers,
Mark
This looks to be a bug from one of the beta builds BUG-000121076: Explorer for ArcGIS (Android) beta incorrectly reque..
Hi Christian,
Thanks. Wait for it to be resolved in the next release then.
Work around:
Choose "Continue without signing in"
Tap the Profile icon
> Sign in
> Choose ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise and sign in without giving access to your contracts
Tyler,
Explorer is doing nothing with your contacts. Unfortunately at the release of Android we shipped this version of Explorer on contacts permission was inadvertently requested along side other privileges we might need like access to the file system to download maps as well as access to the GPS to show your location on a map.
Android has improved their permissions management infrastructure quite a bit since we last shipped Explorer and at the 19.1 release of Explorer we will not be requesting this as Explorer does absolutely nothing with contacts. We will be in Beta of Explore Android 19.1.0 later this fall with a final release early in 2020.
