Why does Castbox require permissions of Microphone, Camera, storage and Bluetooth (Android)?

Castbox requires your permissions of Microphone, Camera, storage and Bluetooth for audio recording, changing profile image, downloading files to your SD card and connecting to a Bluetooth device.
You may disable them by going to your phone settings - applications - Castbox - permissions.
Please do not worry, Castbox won’t collect any info of your contacts and other stuff. We understand how important it is to make users trust us. Nobody would like to have his/her personal info obtained by others, and Castbox won’t do anything infringing users’ rights.
