There are 3rd party systems like XPrivacy which allows you to individually allow actions like this.

- ultramancool 11y agoYeah, it's not a tool for novice users, but generally systems like this are not good for novice users. They form habits of click yes if you want stuff to work.
- wil421 11y agoIf you have a rooted android you use XPrivacy. The permissions are better on iOS than when I had an Android but depending on the app you dont have much control. For example Waze and The Weather Channel app wont let me set Location Services to "While Using" (unlike Google maps and Apple Maps). Instead I am left with no access to location or Always on which drains my battery horribly. Beside I shouldn't have to install a 3rd party to be able to restrict access.
