    It’s possibly compliance. I know google requires you to have a privacy policy to even publish an app, no matter what.

    They are just promising not to share with the government or any private entity that you are the idiot who had to use a calculator to find half of 17, just in case you were worried about someone finding out.

    Yes!

    My Xiaomi Redmi 11 keeps telling me the Calculator can’t use the network (why?) and keeps asking me to accept the privacy policy.

    Also the app wallpaper - the one that changes the locked screen background image (important complex stuff /s) - also keeps asking me to accept the privacy policy.

    And, as far as my reading of the policy goes, these privacy policies are just the one, it’s not a different one for each app.

    I can’t even imagine what data there is to collect for an application this simple.

    That privacy policy better be really short.

    On the bright side, a simple calculator ought to have plenty of free and open source alternatives that don’t harvest any data.

      Your calculator would like access to your contacts.

      Your calculator would like permission to send and receive phone calls.

      Your calculator would like permission to view and delete emails.

      Please click AGREE to proceed.
