Drawing over other apps is a problem too. On my OnePlus, I just checked, there are 23 apps with the permission to draw over other apps, but only 3 of those are the ones I've explicitly allowed.
20/23 apps are Google, OnePlus, or Android System apps. I never knew so many of them had this permission!
- KRAKRISMOTT 3y agoThe 20 apps are all pre-installed from factory. If you don't trust those, then you need to change your device. There is no trivial way of removing them short of rooting or flashing a new ROM.
- londons_explore 3y agoEven factory apps ought to be given the minimum permissions needed to do their job - otherwise someone will find an exploit for one and have an easier time doing evils.
- c420 3y agoUse App Manager from f-droid and enable adb mode or wireless debugging and then freeze the unwanted apps. The manual tells you exactly how to use adb over USB or enable wireless debugging.
