Permissions Summary App
Permission Summary is a lightweight, open source Android app that helps you quickly check which apps have access to sensitive permissions on your device โ in just a few seconds.
The app only lists user-installed apps and only those with dangerous permissions. These are permissions Android classifies as potentially privacy-invasive and require explicit runtime approval.
Permissions Checked:
- Camera โ Access to your device's camera
- Microphone โ Record audio
- Location โ Fine & coarse location (GPS, Wi-Fi, etc.)
- Storage โ Access to files, media, photos, or music
- Contacts โ Read, write, or access contact data and accounts
- Calendar โ Read or write calendar events
- Phone / Call Log โ Read phone state, call logs, answer calls, etc.
- SMS โ Send or receive SMS, MMS, and WAP push messages
- Body Sensors โ Access data from heart rate, step counter, etc.
Non-dangerous permissions like INTERNET, POST_NOTIFICATIONS, and BLUETOOTH are intentionally excluded to reduce noise.
Features:
- ๐ Grouped by Permission โ Instantly see which apps request access to camera, mic, contacts, etc.
- ๐งผ User Apps Only โ Filters out system apps and background clutter.
- ๐ซ Focus on Privacy โ Shows only dangerous permissions and skips non-sensitive ones.
- ๐ฑ Modern UI โ Built entirely with Jetpack Compose and Material 3.
- โก Fast & Lightweight โ Optimized for quick, offline use. No trackers, no nonsense.
Privacy: Everything runs locally on-device and offline. No personal data is collected or shared.
