I tried to install Acrobat reader on Android.

It asked access to:

- In app purchases (ok, I can pay, but only once please; not a fan of subscriptionware)

- Identity (what for?)

- Contacts (what for?)

- Photos/Media/Files (Ok, I can understand it, but can I please allow only certain folders?)

- Camera (again, what for???)

- Wi-Fi connection information (what for?)

Since it is all-or-nothing, I had to decline. And now I'm looking for another pdf reader without ads.

This whole mobile shitshow is driving me nuts.
