View and Manage the Privacy Settings on Your Device

Find privacy tips, privacy permissions, and app privacy behaviour logs on your device, by visiting the privacy centre. When an app uses a sensitive permission, your device will inform you in real time, so that you can make timely adjustments, when necessary.

 

  • Privacy behaviour logs are analysed and displayed solely on your device, and will not be uploaded to the cloud.

  • Some system apps will not display permission reminders or privacy suggestions when using permissions.

View Permission Access Notifications

Your device will inform you of any sensitive permissions that are being used on the status bar, and display the app information on Control Panel in real time. From there, you can choose to manage these permissions on a case-by-case basis.

For example, when an app uses the microphone permission, the microphone icon will display on the status bar. You can swipe down from the upper right edge of your device to display Control Panel, and check which app is using this permission at the top.

Touch the app name to view the recent sensitive permission logs for the app, or to disable specific permissions for the app.

Real-time access notification is only supported for certain sensitive permissions.

View Sensitive Permission Records

You can find the records related to sensitive permission usage and recent app privacy behaviour in the privacy dashboard.

To do so, go to Settings > Privacy, and touch the permission icon, app icon, or next to the permission icon on the privacy dashboard.

Touch View full history to view records of lock screen data access, frequent data access, and app privacy behaviour.

If you wish to disable the display of such records, go to > Disable privacy report in the upper right corner of the Privacy screen.

Bolster Image Privacy Protections

Concerned that certain third-party apps might obtain sensitive information from images in the background, or the image information may be leaked when you share images on social media, just enable Image privacy for ultimate peace of mind.

Go to Settings > Privacy, touch Image privacy, and enable Remove location info and Remove other info.

Once this feature has been enabled, third-party apps, rather than system apps, for example Gallery, will not be able to obtain sensitive image information, such as the locations, device models, and times when the images were taken.

Get Tips on How to Protect Your Privacy

When your device detects that your privacy settings are risky or can be optimised, it will provide handy tips that are easy to apply.

Go to Settings > Privacy, and follow the onscreen instructions to touch the button next to each suggestion.

If you wish to ignore a suggestion, swipe left on the suggestion, and touch . The system will not continue to remind you, if you ignore the same suggestion twice.
