app permissions
First of all, think about the risks you will run when sharing data over the internet. Some apps may ask for permissions to access your camera, microphone, and even your location. Such accesses are a risk when it comes to security.
Today such practices are common in cases of theft and also for the sale of customer records to marketing companies. by this, all caution are little. Don't give permissions to apps without first checking the risks.
Starting with the motion sensor. Although such permission is very useful when you request a trip through a transport app, for example, such permission puts even your calls at risk, which can be heard. That is, the tool becomes quite invasive.
The microphone is another permission that requires caution. Do not accept in all applications. If not, you will allow all your conversations to be overheard. Even when you're not using the app you've allowed access to.
Location is also extremely sensitive data. After all, malicious people can use this information even to monitor your steps. Therefore, only accept it when it is really necessary to share your location, for example, in a delivery application.
Another permission that can put your information at risk is access to your contacts. Therefore, do not give this permission to applications that do not need access to your contacts at all.
If you were in doubt, see the permissions that you have already accepted by Android in “Privacy”. Go to “Manage Permissions” and see what makes sense.
The same can be done on the iPhone, clicking on “Settings”, then “Privacy” and deactivate some permissions that are not necessary.
