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

Guy you funny o, if i tell you how many things are spying on you, that wont even tell you, at least flash share made it known that they need all this permissions and really no big deal, the android operating system you dey use , who you think get am, no be Google , u no wetin dem dey collect for your phone , bro whether you like it or not you would be spied on , anything that was created by man can be cracked by man, even if you be ultimate hacker wey fit protect yourself from spying , extra ultimate hackers fit open your yansh within the blink of an eye.So what am i saying ,just do what is right and forget about who is spying on you, protect yourself the best you can , if something is extra private , discuss it in person, even MTN dey recored your call u no know. Bros this is what technology was created for , we have to live with the repercussions and consequences.I don dey talk too much already.even Microsoft dey spy on you . sorry i ay i no go talk again , i no fit hold am, all of una wey dey rush go install windows 10 SMH , I reserve my comments.


NOTE:If you dont want to be spied on
1. Go and manufacture your own gadgets, phone, laptop etc
2. Go produce your own internet , launch santellite abi satellite anyone
3. Dont use any third party apps (no be party owambe i dey talk oo,) i mean no go use application wey another person do
4. Live on an island with just trees,animals and yourself

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.

Ewoooo!

hmmm

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.

Ok, noted.

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.

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

This is Nigeria. Such info no get use here. We no send all those privacy ish for here buh if na abroad it does matter. Copy my call log do wetin with am for this naija?

End time FLASH SHARE

You can still disallow the permission na.. In your settings

So dis is how it feels to be the FTC... Dancing Shakiti bobo

The poster above me tho

Dats y I hv never bin a fan of flash share

teamXENDER

Really?

dont agree

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.

soo, is this new?

thank God, I'm safe.
I never liked 'flash share'.
