General device permissions - Device settings
Acrobat Reader app leverages the default settings and features of your device to make it easier and faster to work with your documents. To streamline your ability to work with and share files, allow the app to access your camera, contacts, and storage.
Note: Only notifications are enabled by default. For access to other features, you are prompted to give permissions as needed.
Also, Google has updated the permissions prompt with Android 11. As with Android 10, Acrobat requires this permission to browse, view PDFs and provide capabilities such as editing, commenting or signing. Acrobat will not modify or delete any of your files without your explicit consent.
