The Android 11’s auto-resetting permissions, where the operating system restricts an app’s permission to access sensitive phone features like its storage or cameras if it hasn’t been opened for several months, are now coming to older devices. The feature originally which was launched with Android 11 last year, will soon be available on any phones running Android 6 and above with Google Play services. The feature is designed to help protect user privacy by preventing older apps from having unfettered access to the phone if they haven’t been used in months. Will it boring to keep to granting access to apps every other time whenever the permissions has been reset ?
