Permissions you will be asked for

Alert24 explains each permission on screen as it asks. Every one has a job, and most are optional: skip one and the related feature stays off. See the full list in permissions explained.

  • Display over other apps: the full-screen alarm and the PIN screen that stops it.
  • Camera: the silent intruder photo. Never used without a trigger.
  • Location, including Allow all the time: the address on intruder photos, trusted places, and answering Locate while the screen is off.
  • Battery optimisation exception and auto-start: so Android does not stop the alarm service in the background.
  • Phone state: to pause alarms while you are on a call.
  • Device admin: to notice wrong unlock attempts and unlocks for the intruder selfie and Phone Access Snap.
