Push notifications (GCM) permission at runtime?

问题:

I have read that it is necessary to ask the user for some permissions at runtime for API 23 and up. For example: android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION. Is it necessary (or even possible) to ask for a runtime permission for using GCM/push notifications at runtime if API is 23 or higher?

I have tried using the requestPermissions method at runtime, but it doesn't seem to work (nothing happens) when I use it with any GCM/push notification related permissions.

I have the following permissions in my Manifest for this purpose:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE"/>
<permission
    android:name="${applicationId}.permission.C2D_MESSAGE"
    android:protectionLevel="signature"/>

The only permission that the user knows of, is the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION when downloading the app from Play Store. Shouldn't the user be able to choose wether or not they would allow push notifications?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Actually the Push Notification permission lie in Normal Category Permission like INTERNET permission not in Dangerous Category Permission.

You don't have to ask for Push Notification permissions.

While Contacts/Locations are the Dangerous permissions because you are accessing user data.so always needed to ask to user to allow it.
