Asking Permission to Place a Call

Step #5: Ask for Permission to Make Calls.......................................

Then, we can update AndroidManifest.xml to put in a permission request to

be able to place phone calls:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

package="apt.tutorial"

android:versionCode="1"

android:versionName="1.0">

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE"/>

<application android:label="@string/app_name">

<activity android:name=".LunchList"

android:label="@string/app_name">

<intent-filter>

<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
