On Android 12 our app crashes whenever a sendbird call is initialized. And it is all related to sendbird. We don’t even use bluetooth throughout the app. Is the BLUETOOTH\_CONNECT permission now a requirement for calls? Do we have to adapt our permission requests to adapt for this or is this a bug?

Hi @George_Fodor, we’ve just released calls `1.9.0` version which include the bug fix you reported. Now, SDK will not cause a crash even if the app haven’t acquired `BLUETOOTH_CONNECT` permission.

Please update your SDK version and feel free to reach out to me if you still have problems.

Regards,  
Nathan.
