• Privacy behaviour logs are analysed and displayed solely on your device, and will not
be uploaded to the cloud.
• Some system apps will not display permission reminders or privacy suggestions when
using permissions.
View Permission Access Notications
Your device will inform you of any sensitive permissions that are being used on the status bar,
and display the app information on Control Panel in real time. From there, you can choose to
manage these permissions on a case-by-case basis.
For example, when an app uses the microphone permission, the microphone icon will display
on the status bar. You can swipe down from the upper right edge of your device to display
Control Panel, and check which app is using this permission at the top.
Touch the app name to view the recent sensitive permission logs for the app, or to disable
specic permissions for the app.
Real-time access notication is only supported for certain sensitive permissions.
View Sensitive Permission Records
You can nd the records related to sensitive permission usage and recent app privacy
behaviour in the privacy dashboard.
To do so, go to Settings > Privacy, and touch the permission icon, app icon, or next to
the permission icon on the privacy dashboard.
Touch View full history to view records of lock screen data access, frequent data access, and
app privacy behaviour.
If you wish to disable the display of such records, go to
> Disable privacy report in the
upper right corner of the Privacy screen.
Bolster Image Privacy Protections
Concerned that certain third-party apps might obtain sensitive information from images in
the background, or the image information may be leaked when you share images on social
media, just enable Image privacy for ultimate peace of mind.
Go to Settings > Privacy, touch Image privacy, and enable Remove location info and
Remove other info.
Once this feature has been enabled, third-party apps, rather than system apps, for example
Gallery, will not be able to obtain sensitive image information, such as the locations, device
models, and times when the images were taken.
