Guarding Your Privacy: Control What Your Phone Apps Access

So the question is: is that access justified? Luckily, you can disable that access.
Ever wondered what your phone apps are up to behind the scenes? In this episode of 'SocialMediaBreakup', Johan sheds light on the often-overlooked issue of app permissions. It's all too easy to install apps without a second thought, but each one can access your camera, location, microphone, photos, and contacts. Do they really need all that access? Probably not. Johan walks you through simple steps to regain control over your privacy settings.
Whether you're using an iPhone or an Android device, he offers practical advice on how to disable unnecessary permissions and protect your personal data. This episode isn't just about privacy, though. Johan also dives into the broader topic of phone addiction and how to break free from compulsive phone use. You'll get tips on using your smartphone more efficiently and mindfully, so it enhances rather than detracts from your life.
If you're looking to reclaim your time and safeguard your privacy, this episode is a must-listen.
