    Hmm. Don't like the Identity permission required.

    • Agree gooseberry. Why do people blindly accept excessive app permissions.

      • +3

        Come on man, look into what these mean.

        The identity permission asked for by this app is "find accounts on the device".

        That means it can check with the Google account manager to find out if there are any accounts for Facebook, Google etc on the device.
        It doesn't include “Use accounts on the device” which would let it do something with them.

        it's probably just for a license check etc, and can be easily denied when the app asks for it.

        I used AppOps to disable those permissions and NetGuard to block from internet access. App is still working.

        EDIT: I have to say, the features are mighty handy in checking out my network. Sure to be useful when troublshooting.

    • it's really not that hard.

    does that mean I can turn on/off my manager's mobile?

    • +3

      Not unless your manager happens to be running an SSH server on his phone (not at all likely) and you have access to a user+password/private key that can use 'shutdown'.

  • nice apps

    If you're interested in paid Android apps that are reduced to free, this site I believe scans the Play Store daily and lists them.

    http://www.ubuntuvibes.com/

    or search for the "PAGF" app.

    It's mostly icon packs and themes, but there are also some good ones, like the app above.

  • Thanks so much I will try it out

    HRM tempting but only 5k downloads and asks for excessive permissions.

    I usually like to wait until these things are a bit popular before checking them out.

    +1 for Fing. Works really well and always free.

    Free/Paid version of net analyser are very good too.
