For a Ren'Py game, RAPT will choose an appropriate set of permissions for you. It always is:

WAKE_LOCK
Keep the screen on during the game.

WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
So RAPT can save files to the SD card, such as save and log files.

VIBRATE
So renpy.vibrate can work.

You can choose INTERNET, which gives network access. In the most recent RAPT, this is off by default.

If you create an expansion APK, you get CHECK_LICENSE, INTERNET, ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, and ACCESS_WIFI_STATE. These are used by the downloader library to get the expansion APK if it's missing.
