Good idea but I do not understand the necessity for the variety of permissions the app needs. Can you please explain?

  There is a page detailing the rationale for the permissions located here: https://gizmote.ca/permissions.html https://gizmote.ca/permissions.html

    Thanks for the response. I do not see anything on why you need access to "Contacts find accounts on the device, read your contacts", "create accounts and set passwords". P.S. Also as a personal preference, I don't like other apps having access to my google account where so much of my personal information is stored.

      The contact information access is so that you can easily browse your local contact list to pick email addresses from your contacts for the purpose of sharing device access. The passwords set are not set by us - they are set during the account ceation process as per the GooglePlusClient API. There are no passwords captured or access by the app during this process or any other time of the app. We receive a token from Google that indicates authentication success or failure.
