Google recently updated its Google Play Developer policy, changing how permissions related to Call Logs and SMS are handled.
Now, only apps which use Call and SMS permissions as part of their core functionality are allowed to request for them. This means that only apps selected as the user’s default app for making calls or sending text messages are permitted to access Call and SMS Logs (see Use of SMS or Call Log permission groups). As a result, many popular apps have either removed features and functionality that are dependent on these permissions or de-listed themselves from the Google Play Store.
LeadSquared has removed Call and SMS permissions from the Android app available on the Google Play Store. To use Call and SMS related features (Call recording and Lead Id pop-up, automated call and SMS tracking), you will now have to download the LeadSquared Call and SMS Tracker app.
Note:
- This app is only an assistant to the main LeadSquared app available on the Play Store. Its purpose is to enable Call and SMS tracking functionality.
- To automatically record calls, on the Permissions page, under Call and SMS, enable the Record Calls permission.

can we upload call record to LSQ
Hi, Faisal. If you’re asking about uploading an existing call recording file to LeadSquared, then yes, it can be done by attaching the file as an Activity Attachment.
But if you’re asking if you can upload the call record logs to LeadSquared, then no, this cannot be done. Hope this helps.
Can we also record calls?
Hi, Vrindha. Yes, you can record calls, provided on the Permissions page, under Call and SMS, the Record Calls permission is enabled.
I cannot install LSQ after following all the instructions. Please help
Hi, Isaac. That shouldn’t be happening. Can you please elaborate on the issue you’re facing, and send it as a mail to support@leadsquared.com.
