Fatal Exception: java.lang.SecurityException

I'm having an issue using Community version of the library

Fatal Exception: java.lang.SecurityException
Must have USE_BIOMETRIC permission: Neither user {userId} nor current process has android.permission.USE_BIOMETRIC.

Currently the app is not using any biometric verification in it, however, I'm having this issue on some devices with Android 12 and Android 13

SDK Version: 7.0.0

Hi @arshakavag92,

I've managed to reproduce this issue. Permissions USE_BIOMETRIC, USE_FINGERPRINT should be merged automatically from your dependencies. If the permission merging is disabled, the SecurityException occurs.

We're going to add a fix that will skip the biometric presence check if the permission is not declared in the manifest. The new release with this bug fix should be available soon. Thank you for reporting this bug.

Best regards,
