The SMS messages stuff is so we can run analysis on number of SMS's you send and receive to display to you. We don't read any of your SMS's, we just count them.

Unfortunately Android permissions don't let us differentiate the two. You can just not allow that permission though and the app will still work.
- hayksaakian 14y agoLast I checked, you can't cherry pick permissions when you install an app, its all or nothing.
- sinak 14y agoHmm, I'm the iPhone user of the company so I wouldn't know :). But according to nicholasjarnold below LBE Privacy Guard might work for that?
- nickpresta 14y agoLBE Privacy Guard is only for rooted phones - i.e. most users won't have it.
- nicholasjarnold 14y agoYou can absolutely cherry pick permissions (and everyone should). You just can't do it during installation and without a 3rd party helper app. Please look into rooting your device and installing LBE Privacy Guard.
- cheald 14y agoCyanogenMod and ROMs with Pdroid do give you cherry-picked permissions, for what it's worth.
