Review one phone's app permissions

Remove access to contacts, messages, microphone, camera, files, or location when it does not match an app's purpose.

Why this matters

One small action can remove a common risk.

Permissions can remain long after you stop using a feature. Reducing unnecessary access limits what an app can see or do.
