Setting app permissions

For some apps to operate properly, they may need permission to access or use information on your device. When you open an app, a pop-up window may appear and request access to certain features or information. Tap ALLOW on the pop-up window to grant permissions to the app.

To view your app permission settings, open the Apps screen and tap Settings Applications. Select an app and tap Permissions. You can view the app’s permissions list and change its permissions.

To view or change app permission settings by permission category, open the Apps screen, tap Settings Applications App permissions. Select an item and tap the switches next to apps to grant permissions.

If you do not grant permissions to apps, the basic features of the apps may not function properly.
