Press on "Application permissions".

In the tab "Not allowed", select a permission you want to allow (in our example, Location).

Choose "Always allow" to allow the app to access the data at any time and "Allow only when the app is in use" to allow access only when the app is open and block it when it is not. 'is more.

Repeat the operation for each application for which you want to add permissions.

Allow specific permission for its apps

You may have decided to open or manage a particular authorization. Rather than going through the apps, let's go directly to the menu of the permission in question.

See you in the Parameters.

Press on "Applications".

Select "Permissions".

In the menu "Permissions", choose again "Permissions".

Tap the permission you want to manage (in our example, "Location")

Select the app for which you want to modify data access (in our example, Instagram).

Choose "Always allow" to allow the app to access the data at any time and "Allow only if app is in use" to allow access only when the app is open and block it when it is not.

Repeat the operation for each application that you wish to control in this way.

You now know how to activate an authorization for one or more applications. Note that very often, an app deprived of a permission that it absolutely needs for its proper functioning will insist that the user activate it.
