Google’s Play Store also assumes that app developers provide precise information on data protection. Instead, other details are hidden. Previously, you could see the permissions an app required in a list on a single page for an app. This could have a deterrent effect on users.
You probably see it that way at Google, because in the course of the upcoming innovations, the specification of the necessary app permissions will disappear. You can find that bad or good, I’m not sure yet.
After all, with newer Android versions, sensitive permissions such as location, microphone and camera have to be requested from apps. Thus, these permissions are not active without the knowledge of the users and are therefore not “hidden”.
Google removes permissions list
With the launch of the Data Safety section on Google Play, which will be mandatory for all apps in 1 week, it seems the app permissions list is going away in both the mobile app and the web.
