Important warnings and limitations
This is a guide to settings you review and change yourself. It does not certify that an app is trustworthy, and removing a permission does not retrieve information already shared.

Review the instructions before entering, uploading, copying, or storing information. Do not use passwords, private keys, recovery phrases, payment details, or other highly sensitive data unless you understand exactly how the tool handles it.
