Hide it pro app permission

Hide it pro app asked the permission of read and write in sd card.what does that mean whether they can view or download the data of sd card.
Where does file get saved in hide it pro , only in phone memory or in its server also?
 
Like any app, it needs that permission to write to user storage. Hide it pro renames every file and stores it locally on the phone. Storing it on their server / cloud is optional in settings.
 
No, allowing that permission only grants the app access to your storage, so that it can hide the files. Without the permission the app won't be able to do anything.

If the app asks for full network access permission then yes, it's possible to read your files. But the app also needs that permission to upload your files to its server if you chose cloud option
 
Other app capabilities are not under my control.why phone does not give us control on these permissions

Phone setting - application manager- permission-more-all permission-other app cababilities
These other app capabilities we as a user cant do anything like neither on nor off we can do with it.
Why, is this because of android safety policy.
Plz explain. I want to know about it clearly.
 
It's very hard to understand the question you're asking.

Especially when it looks like it may have already been answered earlier in the thread.

If you are asking something different now,
Could you ask it again using different words so people can understand what you are asking?

Full network access permission for any app is not in samsung application manager. They show it in other app capabilities. But we dont have access to make it on or off. Why? It it for safety of device.? Just for knowledge purpose.
 
Ok... If anyone understands what you are asking, I'm sure they will reply.
In the meantime, continually replying to your own thread, doesn't help. It is considered bad manners and may make people less likely to reply.
