this is essentially how the sandbox works on macos from what I understand. 90% of applications should work fine for this. Some though like antivirus (as an example) can't really do so.

Check out Android. It has very fine-grained permissions model. But most developers don't care and ask a lot of permissions even for simplest apps. It turns out that users don't care too. I'm not sure how it works for iPhone, where App requests access to some specific very privacy-related functionality, like location or address book, but I think that even on iPhone most users will press "Yes" without second thinking or even careful reading.
