fake app? kinganon 2016-06-01 10:27:52 Post No. 54853225 [Report]

Well, I've been using an app called: Hide it pro, a.k.a Audio Manager, that disguises itself as a sound managing application but is actually an app that hides your files. Similar to a vault.
But after a couple of checks I've noticed that this app feeds quite a nice amout of data (near about 20mb on an average) per month. This app got a shit ton of permission requirements which do seem unnecessary. I'm really suspicious about this app.

Can any pro check it and confirm if this app is actually shady on any basis?
Thanks.

P.S.: OP has a more or less understanding of technology and wants to learn more.

I don't know why people use these apps when you could just make a folder that can't be seen by the apps

OP, use Secrecy from F-Droid instead.

Don't let people use your own device.
