Set your desired reference value for every

changeable permission

The

app evolved from a shell script to a GUI for my personal needs. After a ROM

upgrade or changing device, it’s a time-taking process to review all installed

apps for granted permissions and revoke the unnecessary ones (after all privacy matters). To come up with a solution, you can set reference states of permissions which can be quickly backed up and restored. Colored

bars at left indicate reference states and make it quite easy to review

packages and permissions at a glance.

Manifest

permissions are

those normally called permissions e.g. Storage, Camera etc. AppOps (app

operations) is a robust framework Android uses at back end for access control.

With every Android release manifest permissions are becoming more dependent on

AppOps. So it’s fun to control both simultaneously and see how they relate to

each other. AppOps provide a fine-grained control over many of the

manifest permissions. Plus it provides additional controls. See more

explanation here:
