    Anyone use the Zombaio App for Android (or BB, iPhone, Win)?

    Just curious if anyone else uses these? They have an app for every major smartphone platform to check your stats. As with many Android apps, the permissions one must allow are very broad, maybe overly broad.

    Storage: Modify & delete SD card contents
    Network comunication: Full Internet Access
    Phone Calls: Read phone state & identity

    Think it's safe to install?

      I use it. No issues.

      And those are three pretty basic requirements that most apps need to install.

      Storage: probably because you can now load apps to SD
      Network: obviously it needs to connect to the internet
      Phone Calls: it needs to know if the phone rings so that it can allow you to switch from app to phone call

          it wants to save stuff
          Network comunication: Full Internet Access
          how else will it look stuff up?
          Phone Calls: Read phone state & identity
          phone state and phone identity aren't separated out. It could just need to know to get out of the way if you receive a call rather than wanting to harvest your number and imei etc.

              those seem like pretty minimal permissions


              the apps that want your contact lists are the ones I wonder about, and there are many that ask for that out there
