Hey all,
I have a question about when you select an app from the Market Place: Below is written "Requires access to:" and then a complete list with sometimes about almost everything.
Does this actual mean that the app will send all that info to a server for someone to look into, get your info for whatever reason they see fit?
For example the game "Words With Friends" (I just picked the first I saw) requires access to: Contacts, identity phone, location services, photo, music and video libraries, dataservices, push notification service, movement and directional sensor.
Now I understand that some off those services are needed to make the app work, but is all that data also send over to a server or something that the company off that app can look into? Because with the example app, why should it need access to my music libraries or photo's?
