Install Checklist

Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
File size is a light 6.08 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
This build is signed by "Matthias Urhahn" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

About this app

Permission Pilot is a new kind of app to help you review apps and their permissions.

With each Android update permissions are getting more complex.
Android showing permissions in various different locations, doesn't make it easier to review them:

* App Info page
* Special Access
* Permissions Manager
* and more...

Permission Pilot lists all permissions in a single location, giving you a bird's eye view of app permissions.

Two perspectives are available: You can either view all permissions an app requests, or view all apps that request a permission.

Apps tab
All installed apps, including system apps and work profile apps.
Clicking on any app will list all permissions that the app has requested, including those that show up under Permissions Manager and Special Access, along with their status.
This will also include internet permissions, SharedUserID status!

Permissions tab
All permissions that exist on your device, including those that show up under Permissions Manager and Special Access.
Permissions are pre-grouped for easier navigation, e.g. Contacts, Microphone, Camera, etc.
Clicking on a permission shows all the apps that request access to that permission.

Apps and permissions can be searched using free-text, sorted and filtered by different criteria.

Overview
A summary dashboard showing app counts by category — privacy, security, install source, and more. Each category row navigates directly to a filtered app list.

Permission Watcher
Get notified when an app update adds new permissions or changes existing ones. Permission Watcher checks your apps after each update and creates a report if anything changed.

Data Export
Export app or permission data in Markdown, CSV, or JSON.

Manifest Viewer
Browse raw app manifests with searchable, categorized sections. See which apps can discover other installed apps.

Yes. The APK file linked from this page is free. The developer may offer in-app purchases once installed, but obtaining the installer itself costs nothing.

Android 4.1+ or newer. Installing on older devices may cause crashes or refuse to install.

Is Permission Pilot safe to install?
We link to the exact APK published by Matthias Urhahn. We do not modify the file. Still, as with any sideloaded app, scan it with a reputable antivirus before opening it, and only grant permissions the app genuinely needs.

How do I update Permission Pilot?
Install the newer version on top of the old one — Android will keep your data. If the signature differs, uninstall first (you may lose local progress).

Why is the app not installing?
Common causes: not enough storage, an older Android version than 4.1+, or a conflicting build already installed. Free up space, check your OS version, and uninstall any previous copy before retrying.
