I've had a nexus 7 for six months. I don't really use it other than for watching videos or reading books. I use an iPhone 5 mainly. I would appreciate some help on my dislikes and if there is any solutions as I know it's supposed to be really customisable.
Issue 1: when I go to download apps it says it will have access to my contacts and information phone numbers etc and can make calls at anytime. I know I can't call on the nexus but I don't like the idea that so many apps have to be authorised to basically be able to access personal information. The iPhone apps don't give these warnings. Please explain if I'm not understanding this?
Issue 2: the two rectangles shows history screen captures. I hate this feature for privacy reasons as other people may use my nexus. Can it be disabled or changed somehow?
Issue 3: the apps are all contained in the apps file which means that anybody who borrows my nexus can look at every app installed. I prefer the way iPhone has folders that you can put apps in and they can't be viewed by just opening the app icon. I know I can put apps in folders on one of the five screens but I don't like how easy it is to see what apps are there.
I think generally I just feel this is less private and more of a security risk than my iPhone 5 but I'm happy to be told these issues can be corrected somehow.
Thanks
