For what requires GPS-Mate permissions in Android:

Fine GPS location: GPS-Mate shows your location in the maps using GPS.

Read contact data: You can send your location or a meeting point as SMS text message. You choose the recipient from your address book.

Send SMS messages: To use the function explained above you can send a position SMS.

Receive SMS: If you receive a position SMS, it is automatically processed and the info is shown in the map.

Read phone state: To use the SMS function GPS-Mate needs to know the phone state.

Full internet access: With GPS-Mate you can watch and store online maps from the internet.

Storage: You can record your own tours and save them to the SD card.

Record audio: For navigating outdoor you can prepare individual spoken hints for your waypoints. While on tour GPS-Mate is playing these automatically. The spoken hints are an important orientation and navigation feature without looking at the map.

System tools: If you have disabled GPS in the system settings and want to activate GPS within GPS-Mate it asks whether it should open the system settings. You can then easily access and control your settings. Also GPS-Mate has a setting to keep the screen on when it is running in the foreground. So you do not have to change the system settings yourself.
