AC Question

Hey guys,im just curios what does this permission do with your memory?Like save games,stats and similar things? I am worried cause i think it might delete anything from your phone and download something without you knowing.Really,should i be paranoid about this thing?

You should be paranoid if you download this from an nontrustworthy source. But if you're downloading from bona fide locations like the Play Store or Amazon, you're probably OK. And yes, this permission is requested whenever the app has to save something to the storage, which most apps do.
