    Why does the Crackberry 10 app want access to some of my personal information?

    As this question is being asked on the forum where the app developers frequent, I hope they can give an explanation of why it is beneficial to everyone to allow the app access to my photos and other information.

    I do enjoy the app and site but am concerned that there is unnecessary information being given to OS10 apps.

    Thanks for the post, Frank. It is a concern because I have heard of that kind of info being pulled from Android and is devices. I don't want to be authorizing access to my info to things that can do damage to my personal business. Security of my device is very important to me as I have confidential info that I would not want disclosed to anyone, especially developers.

    So the question is this: if an app has permission to access you'd photos on BB10, can it pull that data from your phone without your input?

    There's no point in me having candidates signing non disclosure forms if I'm giving sensitive information to app developers and my potential competition.
