SYSTEM ACCESS

Permission library

Understand what access enables, what choices operating systems provide, and what to verify.

Approximate, precise, while-in-use and background access have different implications.

Needed for capture, scanning or calls; review whether access is limited to use.

Needed for voice, calls or recording; check indicators and recent access.

Can enable discovery and invitations; consider manual sharing alternatives.

Prefer selected-photo access when the operating system offers it.

Not a sensor permission, but can expose content on a lock screen.

Used for accessories, casting or nearby devices; feature need varies.

Highly platform-dependent; verify exact app and operating-system screen.

Choose selected files instead of broad storage access where possible.

Tracking consent and store disclosures are different from device permissions.
