In app manifest I have:

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

But google now asks me to set if app is calendar or alarm app.
But this app is not any of these.
I think it was added because you can start something in the app and local notification is scheduled to fire notification at specified time 5 min before times out and when something times out.

In this situation are those permissions required?

And because this is already on the store I can’t just remove and upload but I don’t want to categorize app as alarm or calendar but now I can’t deploy changes.
