Weather app asking for permission to manage calls (lemy.lol)

I've done this on a simple timer app I developed.

Why? Because I want the timer to stop automatically during a phone call. To do this I need to request READ_PHONE_STATE (which bafflingly tells the user the permission is to "make and manage phone calls"). Unfortunately, there's no way to alter the permission request to tell the user (at least in Android) why you want the permission. They really need to make the permissions more granular and provide some way for devs to communicate what the permission is for.

And this is why I like Androids feature that automatically revokes permissions after a certain timeframe of not using an app

Except from Google of course, the worst offender of privacy that exists.

They put all these "privacy" features in so other companies can't do what Google already does.

If you ever tried using a Google phone without Google apps, you realize how completely dependent almost all apps are on Googles API in the background, and most of them won't work without it.
