For some apps, when you install the app, you are prompted to accept or decline all of the requested permissions. If you
decline, the prompt will appear again the first time you open the app. You can't change the application permissions later
unless you delete and reinstall the app.
Change or view app permissions
In some apps, if you change the permissions to Off the app might not work as you expect. If an app isn't working as you
expect it to, consider changing some or all of the app permissions to On.
