For some reason when adding Google Play Services (Location services only) to an Android skeleton project (default blank activity project) the "Modify to SD card" permission is automatically added, I have no need for that and would like to remove that permission, is this a bug in Play Services or the expected behavior ?

Just to be clear, all I added to the build.gradle file is the following line:

compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:7.5.0'

And this is the result: App permission

It is possible permissions can come with dependencies. – Jared Burrows Jun 24 '15 at 15:53
The question is, why does location services require SD card access and can I do something about it? – Aviran Jun 24 '15 at 15:55
