Why does it want to access my contacts?
- ken 9y agoIt has data source operations for listing Contacts, Calendars, and Calendar Events. One of the main drivers for this project was that a lot of my data was trapped in these custom data stores, and I wanted to be able to access everything from the same place. (Why can't I grep my calendar events?) It only reads these when you explicitly use these operations, and it never writes to them.
- lgas 9y agoProbably better to wait to ask for the permission until someone is attempting an operation that requires that permission.
- ken 9y agoOhhh ... is it asking you for permission, when you first start the app? That's not cool. I can see why it would do that, but that wasn't my intention. That should be easy to fix. Thanks! UPDATE: OK, confirmed, and a fix is ready. 1.2.1 will not ask to see your Contacts until you use the relevant operation.
