Those settings can be changed later on. Please be aware that without the proper permissions the app might not work as intended.

Notifications (required)
Microphone (required)
Contacts (local contacts on your device)
Telephone (required)
Camera
Please note that Notifications, Microphone and Telephone are required permissions as they are fundamental to basic functions of the app.
Whilst the other permissions are optional, please note that some features might not work as intended without the corresponding permissions (e.g. you can't make a video call without permitting access to your camera). Please note that you can only change the permissions granted in the Android app settings.
