FLASH SHARE is given to you for free, but in exchange for that, they take all data about you on your phone, and sell it to anyone that is interested in finding out about you.

if you are still in doubt, open your phone settings, go to apps, open flash share, scroll down to see the permissions of this app.

You will see all the things this app can take from your phone without prompting you for permission.

If you are using your phone for anything classified whatsoever. UNINSTALL FLASH SHARE NOW!!!!

@OP, root phone, install App Ops, turn unwanted permissions off.

My dear, you have a point; but you should know that
1. Google is regulated by several agencies/standards and what they do with your data is supposed to be innocuos as the data is de-personalized first.
2. Your network provider is regulated by many agencies including government and if they breach user privacy, they will answer to NCC.


In this case however, flash share is distributed by an unknown, unregulated vendor. No one knows what they do with your data and they are not answerable to anyone! AND THE ONLY REASON IT CAN DO WHAT IT DOES IS THAT IT COMES PRE-INSTALLED WITH MOST TECNO PHONES AND USERS DONT EVEN GET TO READ THE IMPLICATIONS OF ALLOWING IT IN THEIR PHONES FIRST!

And if you take care to protect your phone by installing a security app in your phone that checks every outgoing data packet (I have already written an app like that for Desktops/Laptops named "This Nonsense Must Stop!" link: https://www.nairaland.com/3011574/new-c-open-source-app#44117476 ) there is no way hackers can access your data except they come to you in person and physically copy it.

So, its not a must to be spied on.

JESU! Long Epistle. Please Op kindly uninstall apps locks, what'sapp, BBM, Instagram, Twitter in short even you phone camera is a suspect. When you are done uninstalling I will follow suit. End time messages sending fear across our hearts and leaving them shattered like hearts pierced by an arrow. You got my heart pounding. When I took a quick glance at your post I actually felt flash share shares the crazy messages I have been receiving and replying with my parents, without my permission, I swear I for fix am sharply. Lol.

OP, is it only Flashshare?!
Check well because 82% of all the apps on Android are capable of viewing and modifying your phone one way or another...well as long as you are not on Android 6.X.X Marshmallow.
The latest Android OS notifies you of any change or activity an app is about to make...minus Google apps sha. LOL

I've learn't it for long. The world is already a global village and there's no hidden place any longer.
Technology have united us... the good, the bad and the ugly. smiley

Ever since I read how Jihadi John of ISIS was vaporized by Americans, I came to realize there's no hidden place on this planet.
Just keep on doing the right thing and have a conscience void of offence towards God and towards man smiley

Lots of apps have those features. If only people will take time out to read T&Cs of all these apps, they'll have a very limited number of apps on their devices.
