Permissions fine on iOS but crashes on Android emulator with Permission failure.

My app works fine on iOS. On the Android emulator it crashes with permissions error.

Error details :

com.android.providers.contacts.ContactsProvider2 from ProcessRecord{f043a77 10438:com.company.application/u0a80} (pid=10438, uid=10080) requires android.permission.READ_CONTACTS or android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS

Manifest file looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:versionName="1.09" package="com.company.application" android:installLocation="auto" android:versionCode="377">
	<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="23" android:targetSdkVersion="27" />
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS" />
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS" />
	<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
	<application android:label="Application" android:icon="@drawable/app_icon"></application>
</manifest>

Any ideas? Is it the emulator perhaps - everything else has work 100% on that so far....

Issue solved - although I had to manually go into settings on the Android and set the toggle to allow contacts in the app. Is there an automatic way to do this without having to instruct the user to do this???
