Just wondering why the app needs access to identity=2C calendar=2C contacts
photos & files=2C the camera and call information. I understand the need f
or location information to improve search response.

Joel, I appreciate the question and when I discovered the app asked for those permissions
I threw a fit at the app host service. They explained most apps are
like this and they could not change the settings Only one of those permissions
are used on my app. The only one is location services if you want to show
your location on the Google map, however I do not see that, and you can turn that
off if you want. Another example listed is the access to photos, that would
be if my app allowed you to post photos, which again it does not. I hope this
explains things. I also have their formal response to my complaint that I
would be happy to share. Glenn

vices on my iPad.

If I can answer for Joel, I would bet he has an Android device, that is the standard
permissions for most of their apps, Apple doesn't do that. My iPhone only
asked for permission to use location, like your iPad did. Glenn
