Does the App ask for any Access Permissions while installed on Mobile Devices?

There are certain features for which the MyLOFT app requires the below-mentioned permissions.

These are:

1) Add VPN:  This is one of the required permissions for providing seamless access to institutional subscribed eResources. With VPN we are NOT monitoring all traffic of the app, the purpose of the VPN is to route traffic for subscribed eResources domains securely through MyLOFT Proxy servers (which have dedicated IPs for each institute). 

2) Microphone Access & Speech Recognition: The app has a search by voice commands feature where we require permission for Microphone access and Speech recognition.

3) Storage Access: In Android OS, the App requires additional permission for Storage access to allow users to open some document formats outside the Application such as XLS, Doc, PPT, and ACSM files.
