Ratings and reviews

I just found this update as a notif ultimatum in one of my old phones and I have to say; the only problem I have with it is not the power of extortion it gives Google, nope. It's the fact that it wasn't threatened, sorry "required", much earlier back when I tried using this old phone. Google is blocking users from connecting to its ad network, or "services", which is a great feature for Android to have. I'm sure the most egregious things are still happening in the bg but to a lesser extent.

Constantly starts services that have no need to be running. There is no easy way, if any, to find out what apps are starting and using these individual services and many have vague names with no online information as to what purpose each service has or how it supports your device. There have been times when no apps are open or running yet there are 27 different services running. Some are settings injector services which seems intrusive as well as the fact that the location service runs 24/7...

Great app. It tracks everything you I've never had a problem with Google play services you guys go has been thorough and quick to download andI've never had a problem with Google playdo. Look at the permissions and click on them.and controls even when and if you can make outgoing calls. It says under phone that it can change contacts numbers and the frequency which it appears you've called. Brings to mind System of a Down. They're trying to build a system, another prison system...for you and me.
