Does the app really need so many permissions?

[ryaa]

The list of permissions is quite large - see below

private static final String[] REQUIRED_PERMISSION_LIST = new String[]{
            Manifest.permission.VIBRATE,
            Manifest.permission.INTERNET,
            Manifest.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE,
            Manifest.permission.WAKE_LOCK,
            Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION,
            Manifest.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE,
            Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION,
            Manifest.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE,
            Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
            Manifest.permission.BLUETOOTH,
            Manifest.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN,
            Manifest.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE,
            Manifest.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE,
    };

Please also see here https://github.com/DJI-Mobile-SDK-Tutorials/Android-ImportAndActivateSDKInAndroidStudio/blob/master/ImportSDKDemo/app/src/main/java/com/dji/importSDKDemo/MainActivity.java#L37 and here https://github.com/DJI-Mobile-SDK-Tutorials/Android-ImportAndActivateSDKInAndroidStudio/blob/master/ImportSDKDemo/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml#L5

Why does the app need Manifest.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE? android.permission.MOUNT_UNMOUNT_FILESYSTEMS? (the latter is even shown as not allowed for the 3rd party apps on Android)

@dji-dev the README.md you link to contains a reference to an even older example on how to use the SDK.

What sample code do you have for the latest version of the SDK v4 (4.16.4) that demonstrates the most simple operation of registering the API Key?
