Note 7 DRAW OVER APPS

[AC Question]

So, I can't swear this gets asked daily. In fact, I'm sure it does, but my research never turns up what I ask. The new Android OS that came with my Note 7 (6.0.1). But in simplest terms, every app I install demands that screen overlay be disabled. Or at least Messenger be disabled. I can disable Facebook Messenger and all other apps are happy. But AFTER I disable and continue, I can re-enable and everything acts "hunky-go-dory". This is puzzling me. My note 4 with 6.something never asked me this. At least, not to my knowledge. And I was never harassed about it.

Your Note 7 is under official recall, in case you haven't heard. Fire bomb can start anytime!

As for your post, yes, this funky overlay problem is a part of MM related to permissions. Why they went this far, I have no idea. Many posts about it in the Note 4 forum too... along with all phones that have MM.
