Third-party application control

About permissions for third-party applications

You can set permissions that control how third-party applications on your BlackBerry® device interact with the other applications on your

device. For example, you can control whether third-party applications can access data or the Internet, make calls, or use Bluetooth®

connections.

If you have added third-party applications to your device, the device firewall is designed to prevent these applications from sending or

receiving data without your knowledge. Before a third-party application sends or receives data, a dialog box prompts you to accept or

deny the connection request. If you turn off the prompt, you can reset the firewall options to receive the connection prompt again.

Reset connection permissions for third-party applications

1. In the device options, click Security Options.
