However, some apps may obtain excessive permissions, posing potential risks to your
information privacy and security. You can check the permissions granted to each app and
deny those you deem unnecessary in system Settings.
Manage the Location Permission
After granting the Location permission to an app, it can obtain your location information at
any time. For example, if a map app is granted the Location permission, it can provide you
with location and navigation services. You can revoke the permission if you do not need these
services.
1
Go to Settings > Apps > Permission manager.

On the Permission manager screen, touch Location, touch the icon of the corresponding
app, then select Allow all the time, Allow only while in use, or Deny.
Manage Permissions to Access Other Private Data
You can also manage permissions to access your personal data, such as Contacts, Messaging,
Call logs, Body sensors, Calendar, and Camera, to enjoy better services and protect your
privacy.
Calling services are not supported on Wi-Fi only tablets.
On the Permission manager screen, touch the permission you want to manage, and toggle
the switch for each app on or off as required.
Use Location Services
Some apps need to obtain your location information to provide better services. You can
enable or disable location services, and grant or deny permissions to access location
information for particular apps as required.
Enable or Disable Location Services
You can enable or disable location services in either of the following ways:
Swipe down from the status bar to open the notification panel (you can swipe further to
•
display all shortcuts), and enable or disable
Alternatively, go to Settings > Location, and enable or disable Access my location.
•
After location services are disabled, your tablet will prevent all apps and services from
collecting and using location information, with the exception of some built-in apps. When
these apps or services need to use location information, your tablet will remind you to enable
location services again.
Increase the Accuracy of Location Services
You can improve the positioning accuracy of your tablet by allowing apps and services to
scan for nearby Wi-Fi networks and Bluetooth devices or access supplementary data from
global navigation satellite systems (GNSS).
