ASK HN: Why does the Outback app on my IPhone need access to my photos?
I downloaded the Outback app and if I go to Settings->Privacy->Photos I see the Outback app and looks like by default its turned on. Seems like a security threat to me.
- zimpenfish 13y agoI don't believe iPhone apps can have default-yes access to photos. There's always a prompt, isn't there?
- atom-morgan 13y agoYes, I think so.
- brudgers 13y agoThe Outback app is designed free. Free as in in hog pens and slop troughs.
- runjake 13y agoAccess in iOS is never on by default. You have to approve each app individually. You can go in and turn that access off by launching Settings, and tapping through Privacy->Photos and finding the Outback app and switching it to off. While you're there, you may want to review other privacy settings for other apps.
