RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I would love to have the ability to expand a reason for why the app need access to things like calls and contacts.
Does it need access to calls so it can mute itself? That is different than needing access to calls for some other reason. Maybe the reasons are a lie, but if they take the time to put in something that makes some kind of sense at least I'm not second guessing why they need some seemingly random thing.
Also it would be great if the access was more obviously granular. Let them ask for the whole thing or specific parts, because if they pick specific parts that is a sign that they are actually using it for the stated purpose.
