Apps might access features of your device that you permit them to (like the camera,
microphone, or location) when they are running in the background, not just when
you are using the app. You can set your device to notify you when this happens.
1. From Settings, tap
Privacy > Permission manager.
2. Tap a category, then tap an app to select which permissions you want to be
notified about.
NOTE
When using an app or service for the first time that wants to access
certain features of your device, a dialog box asks if you want to permit such
access.
