RE: PockEmul 1.4.1 Relesed
I just checked and the new Android M will have the ability for the user to turn on/off permissions on a per App basis. But, as we all know, most of us will not be running version M until we upgrade our devices.

What is interesting is that we get no permission notice when we install programs to our PC's. But we install them anyway. While on the Phone/Tablet, we do get the notice and thus start being concerned (in my opinion, rightfully so). Almost every program I have on my PC has access to the internet, if for nothing else than it's ability to check for updates to the programs. But does this access also allow them to do other nefarious things? I really don't know.

As I mentioned, it appears PockEmul has a "cloud" based piece where users can upload/save and download sessions so that others can use them also. I personally like this feature since it is nice to see how others have configured their sessions for a particular handheld. Yes, this could be done as a separate download page on the web, but I find it convenient to have it within the program. Does the program do other things on the web that I am unaware of - who knows.

I still don't know why the Mic and Camera permissions are being required. I plan to email Remy, the author, and ask him.
