Permissions:
The app needs the following permissions for the full range of funcion, additional to the internet access:
• Your location in order to use the current position for start/destination, and also to determine stops nearby.
• Access to your Calendar to save connection information in the calendar. If you want to do that, the app must query the list of installed calendars. The app doesn’t read calendar entries.
• Access to your address book so the program has access to your contacs. By select-ing a contact, the corresponding stored address is being used for the start/destination. When searching a connection, the given address is used for the request of start/destination - here, the system can not distinguish if the address has been selected from contacts or has been typed in manually. These permissions are only used within the mobile terminal device for the started purposes. The call list will not read by the app.
You can adapt permissions in the settings and use our app without these functions.
