description:
:   Declares a name for a logical grouping of related permissions. Individual
    permissions join the group through the `permissionGroup` attribute of the
    [<permission>](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/permission-element) element. Members of a group are
    presented together in the user interface.


    This element doesn't declare a permission itself, only a category in which permissions can be placed.
    For information about declaring permissions and assigning them to groups, see the
    [<permission>](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/permission-element) element.

attributes:
:

    `android:description`
    :   User-readable text that describes the group. The text is
        longer and more explanatory than the label. This attribute must be
        set as a reference to a string resource. Unlike the `label`
        attribute, it can't be a raw string.

    `android:icon`
    :   An icon representing the permission. This attribute must be set
        as a reference to a drawable resource containing the image definition.

    `android:label`
    :   A user-readable name for the group. As a convenience, the label
        can be directly set as a raw string while you're developing the application.
        However, when the application is ready to be published, set it
        as a reference to a string resource, so that it can be localized like other
        strings in the user interface.

    `android:name`
    :   The name of the group. This is the name that can be assigned to a
        [<permission>](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/permission-element)
        element's
        [android:permissionGroup](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/permission-element#pgroup)
        attribute.
