ℹ️ ACCESSIBILITY SERVICES API DISCLOSURE (AccessibilityService API)
For Safe Open to function correctly, the Accessibility Service permission must be enabled:
β€’ Why do we use it? We use the AccessibilityService API solely to detect when a protected app is opened in the foreground (detect active window changes). This allows Safe Open to instantly mute your device's media volume before the audio starts playing.
β€’ Do we collect your data? No. Safe Open DOES NOT collect, store, or share any personal data, sensitive user information, or usage analytics. All operations are processed locally on your device. ## Rankings - #2,584,978 β€” Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_AD_ID` - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_ATTRIBUTION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_TOPICS` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE` - `com.google.android.finsky.permission.BIND_GET_INSTALL_REFERRER_SERVICE` - `com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID` - `com.novacorestudios.safeopen.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` ## Similar extensions and apps - [VoluMute](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.leira.volcontrolapp) β€” 65 users - [AudioShield: Volume Guard](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.apprecial.audioshield) β€” 1,876 users - [Auto-Mute | For Your Apps](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.technosub.auto_mute_dnd) β€” 65 users - [SoundSense: Per-App Volume](https://chrome-stats.com/d/finecoder.apps.soundsense) β€” 281 users - [DeliverMute - Volume Block](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.fazidea.delivermute) β€” 31 users - [Sleep Mute - Auto Media Pause](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.asogaru.dnd_mute) β€” 158 users - [AppVolume: Per-App Volume](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.coco.appvolume) β€” 1,027 users - [Volume Control by App β€” Auto](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.autoappvolumecontrol) β€” 52,930 users, 2.14 / 5 - [Mute Guard](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.muteguard) β€” 125 users - [SuperMute](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.mmedia.supermute) - [Camera Mute MuteAll](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.hanamarusha.muteall.pro) β€” 6,039 users - [VolumePilot: Volume per app](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.nand.volumepilot) β€” 52 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.novacorestudios.safeopen)
