This Android Setting Makes It Easy to Manage All Your App Permissions ...Middle East

News by : (Live Hacker) -

Android devices have a dedicated privacy dashboard through which you can choose how apps access private data, like your camera, microphone, call logs, location, files, calendar, and contact list (to name a few). If you go to Settings > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Permission manager, you can see every app that has these permissions and change them if needed. For apps with location, camera, and microphone permissions, you can choose whether to allow access all the time, only when using the app, or not at all—you can also force apps to ask permission every time you open them.

For legitimate apps, these permissions generally aren't a problem, though not all apps need all of these system-level permissions to function, and you may not want every app to be able to access things like system settings and usage data. There are also cases where these permissions could be used maliciously, such as screen overlays designed to steal your login credentials or sensitive information collected from device and app notifications.

Audit your special permissions on Android

Special permissions live in a different section of your device settings from the privacy dashboard, so even if you regularly audit your apps' privacy settings, you may not come across these system-level permissions. Go to Settings > Apps > Special app access (this may be hidden behind a three-dot menu) and click on the permission type to see which apps have been granted access. You can then choose to disable permissions for any apps that don't really need them.
