About Permissions Summary
Permission Summary is a lightweight, open source Android app that helps you quickly check which apps have access to sensitive permissions on your device — in just a few seconds.
The app only lists user-installed apps and only those with dangerous permissions. These are permissions Android classifies as potentially privacy-invasive and require explicit runtime approval.
Permissions Checked:
Camera — Access to your device's camera Microphone — Record audio Location — Fine & coarse location (GPS, Wi-Fi, etc.) Storage — Access to files, media, photos, or music Contacts — Read, write, or access contact data and accounts Calendar — Read or write calendar events Phone / Call Log — Read phone state, call logs, answer calls, etc. SMS — Send or receive SMS, MMS, and WAP push messages Body Sensors — Access data from heart rate, step counter, etc. Non-dangerous permissions like INTERNET , POST_NOTIFICATIONS , and BLUETOOTH are intentionally excluded to reduce noise.
Features:
🔐 Grouped by Permission — Instantly see which apps request access to camera, mic, contacts, etc. 🧼 User Apps Only — Filters out system apps and background clutter. 🚫 Focus on Privacy — Shows only dangerous permissions and skips non-sensitive ones. 📱 Modern UI — Built entirely with Jetpack Compose and Material 3. ⚡ Fast & Lightweight — Optimized for quick, offline use. No trackers, no nonsense.
Privacy: Everything runs locally on-device and offline. No personal data is collected or shared.
