Hello, and thank you for replying

I was looking at a tutorial that used Contacts which is a ContentProvider

That app had the following tag in AndroidManifest:

     <uses-permission
       android:name="android.permission.READ_CONTACTS">
     </uses-permission>



I thought maybe I would need something like that to access a custom
ContentProvider

Best regards
