Worrying application permission requirements.

[everway9]

Hi.

Many apps seem to require permissions that have nothing to do with the app and this concerns me.

For example, I wanted to install the Vanquis banking app. Check out the screenshot in my next post.

Sorry... I was having problems with this site when I started the thread. Thats why I didn't upload the image. I'm still having problems. Webpages aren't loading properly. I have good internet but it's just this site. I'll upload it later when everything sorts itself out.

Most of the permissiins it wants doesn't have anything to do with it.

Anyway... thanks belodion, I'll check out that link.

I’ve been having forums problems myself today...slow this and not-responding that. It sometimes happens.

Thanks. It's nice to know it's not just me having problems.

Seems to be working ok now though.
