How to install Permission Friendly Apps APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download Permission Friendly Apps APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (org.androidsoft.app.permission-v2.2.0-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading). As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

5 ★The only reason I installed this app is because I am privacy seeker. And I can assure you that this app didn't let me down. It not only shows what permissions every app has access to, but also shows a severity score for every app and if you feel like the app is too severe for you, you can simply press the uninstal button right in the app. You can even filter the apps by permission, sort them by severity score or name which I believe every user will find it usefull. Totaly recommend.
5 ★I was unimpressed to find the apps that I had already downloaded because they needed no special permissions......had special permissions attached to them somehow. Just goes to show you what a deceitful world we live in these days
1 ★I see the app permissions. Now how about giving us some options to modify those permissions? In fact I think there's another app that does this way better but I forgot the name of it
5 ★This application shows you the permissions you accepted and exactly what the apps are using them for and even some of the simplest apps are severely abusing your privacy information and privacy. Using your camera and your microphone and compiling your data. I severely suggest sharing this with your friends. thank you permission friendly app
4 ★Great simple app, no adds, no permissions, and an easy way to see what permissions different apps are wanting. It would be nice if it could tell if a permission is denied for an app, and sort by the score based off only granted permissions. It would also be cool if for each app it gave a shortcut to its app information page in system settings, IIRC that can be done without root, and it seems odd that there's no button or link for that
3 ★It said all my apps were bad! probably slowing down my internet. But i needed to keep some of the apps, which didn't ask for any of my permission. So i guess it's cool for starring other apps like prayers (red) and Shut Up Devil
5 ★Finally an app that don't ask for permissions or use shady strong arming tactics to track your every move invading your privacy ,.niiiice! Now if Google could only take some lessons from these developers it be great again.
1 ★I'm running OmniROM on a rooted phone yet all this app does is list permissions. OmniROM does this by default. I wanted to revoke network permissions for apps. I guess I'll have to uninstall and try another app.
3 ★Google is now opting to merely state, when updating an app, that "no additional permissions are required" (hoping you'll gloss over keyword 'add'l'' vs investigating). would be nice if this app would allow an access button to go-ogle play apps to get app info, then rate it, before one deletes it. I think go-ogle is now requiring developers to insert totally unnecessary permissions unbeknownst to users--why some apps need to open camera, read SD cards, view contacts, etc is way beyond an app's basic usage.
3 ★It's incorrectly stating permissions for apps. An app will have the orange'!' but then the info panel will say it requires no permissions.
5 ★Ignoring the permissions aspect is compromising ones mobile data security n privacy. One realises the most popular apps ask for most unnecessary permissions.Thank you developers for this app :)
5 ★Not sure if good my app's I need to edit permission and even though it can it didn't for my galxy 3 Samsung. Okay a billion days later I finally went through all my apps and this really truly works guys! Great job S.E.
