About this tool
Decide which social app permissions to revoke, keep or limit — scored for privacy gained against features actually lost.
The Social Media App Permission Audit scores a social app's camera, microphone, photos, location, contacts, notifications, Bluetooth, ad ID, background activity and accessibility permissions. It explains which permissions are useful for posting and messaging, and which ones create unnecessary privacy exposure.

The scoring reflects posting, stories, DMs, live rooms, friend discovery and advertising use cases.
Each permission includes a plain action such as selected-photos access or approximate location.

Usually no for core use. Contact sync helps friend discovery but uploads other people's details too, so it is a high-risk optional permission.
Allow them only when you actively create posts, live streams or voice notes. Browsing and messaging usually do not need always-on access.
On modern iOS and Android versions, you can let an app see only the photos you choose instead of your whole library.
