★★☆☆☆
GOOD START, NOT EVEN CLOSE TO FINISHED. NEEDS SEARCH, AND GRID VIEW AT
LEAST. SO YOU GOT AN APP ON THE PLAY STORE....(VERY SLOW CLAP). HERE'S YOUR
GOLD STAR, STICK IT ON YOUR FORHEAD. THIS REVIEW IS FOR ME HAVING TO SCROLL
IN YOUR WORTHLESS APP.
★★☆☆☆
Redundant Maybe it's better to indicate what phone need this.
★★☆☆☆
I dont see the added value. Even if I turn off the permissions it keeps displaying them, so I cant monitor. Furthermore it does not create logs, so I cannot either monitor.
★★☆☆☆
The app only tells the user which permissions the installed apps might
request, not which are being used by the apps.
