PermissionsLightning Bug currently requires the following permissions on your Android device.
Your Location – course (network-based) locationOnly used if you enable Lightning Bug’s local weather feature which is disabled by default. If you enable the local weather feature, only your latitude and longitude are sent to a trusted weather reporting service.
Network Communications – full Internet accessRequired for downloading extra content including sound, image, and program files from 1908 Media servers. If you have Lightning Bug’s local weather feature enabled, Internet access is also required for contacting a 3rd party weather reporting service.
Storage – modify/delete SD card contentsRequired for storing and managing extra content including sound, image, and program files.
Phone Calls – read phone state and identityRequired so that scene and alarm audio can be ducked (partially to fully muted) during phone calls.
System Tools – disable keylock, prevent phone from sleepingKeylock control is required by Lightning Bug’s alarm system. Screen and sleep controls are required to keep the Lightning Bug digital clock andor scene player visible (this is the default behavior, however you can override using Lightning Bug’s Screen Timeout feature)
System Tools – send sticky broadcastLightning Bug uses ‘Sticky Intents’ as a part of its alarm system. The app broadcasts a single sticky intent whenever the alarm clock goes off. This is a standard permission among most android applications providing alarm clock features.
System Tools – automatically start at bootLightning Bug very briefly runs at boot to synchronize it’s alarm system with the system clock. This process is required to ensure alarms go off at the correct time and is designed to have minimal impact on your device’s startup time. This is a standard permission among most android applications providing alarm clock features.
