That is so damn frightening @adamtemp64 I always feel vulnerable when I download an app and they ask for this that and the other information. I normally just decline and go without the app

One of the newest features of Android Marshmallow is that you will be able to individually control permissions for all of your apps. A long time coming, but a very welcome feature.

I can never understand why the simplest of apps wasn't access to your contacts, photos and text messages. I never allow them access, I can do without such apps.

Normally they require access to certain things for very valid reasons but it would help if the reasons why were given to help users understand.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
