\nEvery time you install an app on your mobile device, there is a list of required permissions that are presented to you by the app. Some users give a blind eye to them by skipping past the list, while others straight away deny permission on the grounds of suspicion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The best advice is to understand the reason behind these permissions before granting or denying them and then to correlate each of them with the functions or features that the app has to offer. Apps with good reputation will always follow good codes-of-conduct, ensuring they seek the right kinds of permissions at the right time. FieldSense<\/a>, for instance, follows ethical practices and stringent guidelines when it comes to asking for access permissions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are a few key takeaways to help you can a company\u2019s permission seeking practices:<\/strong><\/p>\n

  1. To begin with, app permissions are like a user\u2019s boarding process.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Companies with good practices will always avoid asking for all the permissions at one go, that is, at installation stage itself.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Which means permissions asked for at installation stage will be bare minimum. Additional permissions will be required only when the user wishes to use specific features requiring specific access to their mobile phone.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Companies following stringent permission guidelines will never ask for permissions without providing a proper reason for the same.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
