App permissions
When downloading an app from Google Play, specify the functions and data to which this app
has access, e.g. to contacts or your location.
You can check and change permissions for apps on your device. With App permissions
management, you have quick access to all permissions granted to apps on the device.
Permissions when installing apps
Many apps downloaded from Play Store request access to particular information before
installation. For apps developed for Android 6.0 and higher, you can grant or deny permissions
on initial use.
Information on app permissions in the Google Play Store:
On the "Permissions" screen for an app in the Play Store, you can check which permissions
the app requires and then decide whether you want to install it. Scroll down to the very end
of the app description.
For many apps, all permissions are displayed in Google Play before installation. You can use
this information to decide whether you want to install the apps.
Some apps are installed without any prompts about permissions. You are then able to grant
or deny individual permissions when using the apps for the first time.
Permissions might be changed when apps are updated automatically. When using for the
first time a function which requests a new permission, you might have to grant or deny
access to this data or function.
If you want to check all updates before an installation, disable the automatic updates option
in the Play Store.
