From: Daniel Micay The standard INTERNET permission used as the basis for the Network
permission toggle is enhanced with a second layer of enforcement and proper
support for granting/revoking it on a per-profile basis. To avoid breaking compatibility with Android apps, the added permission
+ toggle is enabled by default. However, the OS app installation UI has been
+ extended to show the toggle as part of the installation confirmation page so
+ users can disable it when installing an app. This will be extended to the app
+ repository client included in the OS in the future. Sensors permission toggle: disallow access to all other sensors not covered
by existing Android permissions (Camera, Microphone, Body Sensors, Activity
Recognition) including an accelerometer, gyroscope, compass, barometer,
- thermometer and any other sensors present on a given device. To avoid breaking
- compatibility with Android apps, the added permission is enabled by
- default.
To avoid breaking compatibility with Android apps, the added permission is + enabled by default. When an app attempts to access sensors and receives zeroed + data due to being denied, GrapheneOS creates a notification which can be + easily disabled. The Sensors permission can be set to be disabled by default + for user installed apps in Settings ➔ Privacy.
