  • Android permission managers

    From Andrew@21:1/5 to All on Mon Jun 24 08:44:03 2024
    Here are three Android permission managers (any app I recommend will always
    be free, ad free & gsf free, unless otherwise noted).

    1. Simplest permission manager (listing permissions per app)
    2. Next level of detail (listing permissions per permission types)
    3. Further level of detail (listing everything, including app permissions)

    1. PMX

    2. Permission Manager
    <https://github.com/YourStreet/android-permission-manager>
    <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.yourstreet.permissionmanager>
    (I have this installed but I don't see an APK there anymore.)

    3. Muntashirakon App Manager
    <https://github.com/MuntashirAkon/AppManager/releases>

    Any others?

    What functions I thought of as only for a smartphone are able to be done
    by modern flip phones.

    For example, maps, business addresses, hours; webpages. Email is
    probably irrelevant.

    My good friend has a flip phone and his wife had a smart phone, and one
    out of two I thought was sufficient. They did a lot of things, most of
    their travelling together, so if a smart phone function were needed, she
    could do it.

    But his wife, age 75 or so, died a couple months ago and later I started
    to try to convince him that he could benefit by switching to her phone.
    But he listed a couple things, that I've managed to forget, that he said
    he could already do and it sounded like even I would think that was
    enough.

    Sorry, this should have been it's own thread.
