In my application I implemented a feature to get a phone number from incoming call and it is working fine previously. But after android 9 to proceed further we need to add permission read call log in manifest file.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CALL_LOG"/>
But after add these the app got rejected due to this (READ_CALL_LOG) permission added in manifest file. Playstore inform that the these functionality as a core in the application then only they will accept it. But this functionality is not a core one and it is part of my app.
Can anybody have any idea about this and how to proceed further?
