Observed signing, permission, version and size signals from contributing devices - descriptive of that sample, not a verdict. These come from the v2 Package Search sync, which not every device has contributed to yet, so for some packages this detail is partial or not present at all.

Declared permissions (31)
Largest permission set observed for this package. Text is Android's own published description where one exists; platform permissions Android does not document show their granted protection level (in grey) instead; vendor or unknown constants show the name only.

|---|---|

This app can get your approximate location from location services while the app is in use. Location services for your device must be turned on for the app to get location. |
ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION |
This app can get your precise location from location services while the app is in use. Location services for your device must be turned on for the app to get location. This may increase battery usage. |
ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE |
Allows the app to view information about network connections such as which networks exist and are connected. |
ACCESS_WIFI_STATE |
Allows the app to view information about Wi-Fi networking, such as whether Wi-Fi is enabled and name of connected Wi-Fi devices. |
BLUETOOTH |

INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS_FULL |
Signature-level system permission, for platform-signed apps. |
INTERNET |
Allows the app to create network sockets and use custom network protocols. The browser and other applications provide means to send data to the internet, so this permission is not required to send data to the internet. |
MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS |
Allows the app to modify global audio settings such as volume and which speaker is used for output. |
READ_CONTACTS |
Allows the app to read data about your contacts stored on your phone. Apps will also have access to the accounts on your phone that have created contacts. This may include accounts created by apps you have installed. This permission allows apps to save your contact data, and malicious apps may share contact data without your knowledge. |
READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE |
Allows the app to read the contents of your shared storage. |
READ_PHONE_STATE |
Allows the app to access the phone features of the device. This permission allows the app to determine the phone number and device IDs, whether a call is active, and the remote number connected by a call. |
READ_SMS |
This app can read all SMS (text) messages stored on your phone. |
READ_SYNC_SETTINGS |
Allows the app to read the sync settings for an account. For example, this can determine whether the People app is synced with an account. |
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED |
Allows the app to have itself started as soon as the system has finished booting. This can make it take longer to start the phone and allow the app to slow down the overall phone by always running. |
RECEIVE_SMS |
Allows the app to receive and process SMS messages. This means the app could monitor or delete messages sent to your device without showing them to you. |
RECORD_AUDIO |
This app can record audio using the microphone while the app is in use. |
TETHER_PRIVILEGED |
Signature or privileged system permission. |
USE_CREDENTIALS |
