//Details:
Log.d(TAG, "Package: " + app.packageName);
Log.d(TAG, "UID: " + app.uid);

try {
PackageInfo packageInfo = pm.getPackageInfo(app.packageName, PackageManager.GET_PERMISSIONS);
String[] requestedPermissions = packageInfo.requestedPermissions;
if ( requestedPermissions != null ) {
for (int i = 0; i < requestedPermissions.length; i++) {
permissions.append(requestedPermissions[i] + "\n");
