Permissions
Some applications may need to access data, settings and various functions on your
device in order to work properly. If so, then they need the relevant permissions from
you. For example, a navigation application needs permissions to send and receive
data traffic, and access your location. Some applications might misuse their
permissions by stealing or deleting data, or by reporting your location. Make sure you
only install and give permissions to applications you trust.
