Permissions :

- Approximate location : the weather widget has an option to use your current location to get weather data. The permission is needed to access the city you are in to display proper weather data.

- Read calendar events : the calendar widget needs this permission to send your upcoming events to Chromecast. If you do not have a calendar widget set up, the application does not look at your calendar data.

- Prevent phone from sleeping : if the phone sleeps while connected to the Chromecast, the connection is interrupted. Therefore the application needs to prevent the CPU from going to sleep in order to keep the connection open.

- Receive device boot completed : needed to schedule alarms when the device is powered on.

- Access and change wifi state : allows uCast Information Dashboard to automatically turn on wifi without going into the device settings.
