If you want to make sure that the Android applications you have installed on your mobile phone are completely safe, you can try FSecure App Permissions, an application that allows users to identify programs that hide security risks.
“Dark” Android apps typically request many more permissions than they normally need. For example, a game doesn’t need to access your contacts, and a video player shouldn’t ask for permission to collect GPS data.
F-Secure's app can help Android users accurately determine which programs they can trust.
The app is easy to install and use, and can inform you about which of the apps you have installed may incur charges or have access to confidential data.
Another useful feature is that users can filter applications based on specific criteria, e.g. based on the total number of permissions they require, based on battery power consumption, or based on the cost they incur.
