Settings Privacy Manage App Access Permissions Apps may require certain permissions, such as the Location permissions, in order to provide you with corresponding services. However, some apps may obtain too many unnecessary permissions, posing potential risks to your privacy and information security. You can monitor the permissions granted to each app and deny those you deem unnecessary. Manage the Location Permission After granting the Location permission to an app, it can obtain your location information at any time. For example, if a map app is granted the Location permission, it can provide you with location and navigation services. You can revoke the permission if you do not need these services. 1 Go to Settings > Apps > Permission manager. 2 On the Permission manager screen, touch Location, touch the icon of the corresponding app, then select Allow all the time, Allow only while in use, or Deny. Manage Permissions to Access Other Private Data You can also manage permissions to access your personal data, such as Contacts, Messaging, Call logs, Body sensors, Calendar, and Camera, to enjoy better services and protect your privacy. On the Permission manager screen, touch the permission you want to manage, and toggle the switch for each app on or off as required. Use Location Services Some apps need to obtain your location information to provide better services. You can enable or disable location services, and grant or deny the permission to access location information for particular apps as required. Enable or Disable Location Services You can enable or disable location services in either of the following ways: • Swipe down from the status bar to open the notification panel and swipe down further to display all shortcut switches. Touch to enable or disable this function. • Alternatively, go to Settings > Location and enable or disable Access my location. After location services are disabled, your device will prevent all apps and services from collecting and using location information, with the exception of some built-in apps. When these apps or services need to use location information, your device will remind you to enable location services again. 161
