Register your app in Twilio Verification API


For Twilio Verification SDK for Android to receive SMSs without requesting sms read permissions you will need to register your hash so that Google Play Services will be able to route the SMS to your app.

This is the way Google Play Services redirects the SMS to the app without forcing it to request the SMS_READ permission.
