    Plus as an app developer you get to go through the user’s contacts and files. Having an actual app locks you and allows you to be the product the app owners sell. Nothing else and certainly nothing of value for 99% of the apps out there.

      Apple does not allow this out of the box. You have to confirm for every permission. There is not automatic access to files.

          Huh? I don’t give apps like YouTube access to my files. I don’t upload so they don’t need it. I don’t even think it has asked because I’m not clicking the upload button. YouTube doesn’t get access to my location either. It does have access to local connections because of YouTube on my TV, but that’s it.

            So, you are claiming that youtube plays without the rights to save anything? If you say so.

              Do you know how sandboxed file system storage works? Have you ever made an application? Do you think things that run on the cloud have access to everything else on the cloud? I’m not sure what you’re getting at.

                  I don’t understand what you’re getting at or trying to say. You’re not making sense.
