Permission Ruler [Root] vs Aegis Authenticator - 2FA App Usage & Stats

Prerequisites: Your device has to be rooted. Otherwise you can use this app just to see app permissions and manage them manually, through system settings. Warning: Pause the app before uninstalling or deleting its data, so it will grant permissions back to all apps needed. Regain your privacy, rule your permissions! Do you want to stop your apps using dangerous permissions when the screen is off? Did you ever asked yourself if an app can spy on you through your microphone when the device lays on your table? (the answer is no: apps cannot spy on you that easily, unless they are real malwares, but they can access your files, or get your location, etc.) Then you want Permission Ruler, a powerful and automatic permission manager! Every time you turn off the screen, Permission Ruler will automatically revoke all permissions from all your apps for you, so you don't have to worry about your privacy or wasting your battery. Permission Ruler will give you: • Increased privacy (when the screen is off no app can do dangerous things) • Increased battery life (since the apps can't do whatever they want, they will run less time, consuming less battery life) • Simple usage: click on the only button in the main page when you install it, and forget it • Lock permissions, revoking but not granting them back automatically • Ignore specific apps • Manually manage permissions through the app (will send to system settings) • Don't grant permissions back automatically to apps not used recently Special features (donate version) • Ignore specific permissions of specific apps • Lock specific apps/permissions • Manage system apps • Grant permissions back takes almost half time compared to normal version, using even less battery Who can use it? Anyone can use the app, but there are some limits. To allows the app to automatically grant and revoke permissions you need Root permissions. How does it work? When you turn off your screen, Permission Ruler will revoke all permissions from all apps (unless they are ignored). When you turn on the screen, it will grant all permissions back (unless they are locked). Why should I use it? Usually a phone lays for more than 70% time with the screen off. This means that if you grant a permission to an app to use a feature, that app will get that permission forever, even if you use that feature for less than 30% of the time. Also, It's highly probable you granted permissions to an app you use a few times a year (like traveling/hotel booking apps). Permission Ruler will not grant permissions back to apps not used recently.

Aegis Authenticator is a free, secure and open source app to manage your 2-step verification tokens for your online services. Compatibility Aegis supports the HOTP and TOTP algorithms. These two algorithms are industry-standard and widely supported, making Aegis compatible with thousands of services. Any web service that supports Google Authenticator will also work with Aegis Authenticator. Encryption and biometric unlock All of your one-time passwords are stored in a vault. If you choose to set a password (highly recommended), the vault will be encrypted using strong cryptography. If someone with malicious intent gets a hold of the vault file, it’s impossible for them to retrieve the contents without knowing the password. Entering your password each time you need access to a one-time password can be cumbersome. Fortunately, you can also enable biometric unlock if your device has a biometrics sensor (i.e. fingerprint or face unlock). Organization Over time, you'll likely accumulate tens of entries in your vault. Aegis Authenticator has lots of organization options to make finding the one you need at a particular moment easier. Set a custom icon for an entry to make it easier to find. Search by account name or service name. Have a lot of one-time passwords? Add them to custom groups for easier access. Personal, Work and Social can each get their own group. Backups To make sure you will never lose access to your online accounts, Aegis Authenticator can create automatic backups of the vault to a location of your choosing. If your cloud provider supports the Storage Access Framework of Android (like Nextcloud does), it can even create automatic backups to the cloud. Creating manual exports of the vault is also supported. Making the switch To make the switch easier, Aegis Authenticator can import the entries of lots of other authenticators, including: Authenticator Plus, Authy, andOTP, FreeOTP, FreeOTP+, Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Steam, TOTP Authenticator and WinAuth (root access is required for the apps that don't have an option to export).
