Those are some light permission requests for a fitness app..
Most apps ask for the same exact amount of permissions. There's nothing special about this one.

I still wouldn't download this.
Why do you think that is ?It's really baffling how discernable people suddenly are when it comes to an app by the government, yet at the same time just press the okay button to evenmore permissions when it pertains a commercial app. I also would like people to explain how they think a fitness app should work without those permissions.
On the plus side, this possibly also allows military/FBI/CIA and other government bodies to use fitness apps again, since they were banned from services like Strava due to security risks.

Not saying they shouldn't be, but more that they also should hold 'ever more data hungry for profit organizations' to some higher standards. At least people seem to slowly be realizing what kind of access they are giving with apps, cookies and the likes.

lmao!"It only tracks your fitness progress guys, don't worry about all those other system permissions".
Fall for what? It's a fitness app.The sad part is a lot of people are actually going to fall for this and download.
LMAO.Mueller reaaaaally betting on the wrong horse here if he's thinking he could get to the orange clown via the sports angle...
I'll give you some free advice
They need all those to function if you also do voice calls and share pictures.The thing about the app needing access to all that, a lot of apps require access to shit they don't need. It's why i don't have Facebook/Facebook msg on my phone. Most require shit like microphone, pictures, storage access, wifi access. Everything is spying on you.
It's not just social media. There are apps/games that have nothing to do with your camera, microphone etc but still require access. It's because every company is in the business of selling your information to ad agencies. I wouldn't be shocked if your own ISP/Mobile carrier already logs and sells most of this data anyways.They need all those to function if you also do voice calls and share pictures.
But considering the companies behind it, it sucks you can't trust them not to be shady.
