App permissions

In Turkish: Uygulama izinleri

The access you give an app to your contacts, camera, microphone, photos or location. Give only what the app clearly needs.

A torch or photo-editing app has no reason to read your contacts or record audio. When an app asks for much more than it needs, that is a warning sign, since some apps collect data to sell it.

You can say no and grant a permission later if you need that feature. Phones also let you review which apps hold which permission, and remove ones you gave long ago and forgot.

What to do

  1. Deny any permission that does not match what the app does.
  2. Open your phone's permission manager and review it every few months.
  3. Delete apps you no longer use.
