Important note regarding permissions. The Amazon App requires access to the following services to operate properly:

Location: due to the fact that this is now a world wide app, location permissions are required to support a delivery service feature offered by Amazon in France and Japan. Only in those stores is the location data required or used. In those locations you are able to request delivery to a convenience store closest to your current location. That service is not available in other Amazon countries.

Phone calls: within the app you are able to place a call to Amazon Customer Service. Tap Menu -> More -> Help -> Call Customer Service, and we will place the proper number in the phone app and dial it.

Take pictures: bar code scanning and image search require access to the camera function if you choose to start the bar code scanner from the app.

Account Permissions: This permission is used by the Amazon app suite for account authentication on select handsets.
