Privacy is one of the most at risk elements with new technologies and social networks. In software development it is difficult to make a filter of those applications we let into our phones since we think they stick to what they show and deep down we discover that it is not so. When we install an application and give each other all the permissions it requires without stopping to think about whether we should do it or not, we are making it free for our information to be privacy. It is true that some permissions are necessary for an application to work, for example, a photo editor will need to access your camera, gallery and storage memory. Likewise, I should not ask you for permission from contacts , location or even microphone. You have to read between the lines those permits and assess if they are necessary and if we are willing to give them..

Location is one of the patterns we have to control in our privacy. If we give applications permission to know where we are at all times, it can be used maliciously . If you want to know how to disable the location in general, we show you how to do it on the Huawei Mate 20 Pro.

Having the location disabled if we are not using it is important to prevent third-party applications from receiving information from where we are. If you prefer to control it app by app, here is how to manage permissions in Mate 20 Pro..
