Setting security permissions for apps
BlackBerry 10 OS includes application permissions that are designed to let you control the information
and features that an application can access on your BlackBerry device. For example, you can control
whether an app can access your email, contacts, pictures, or the location of your device. Keep in mind
that some applications require specific permissions to work. You can also help safeguard your device by
downloading apps only from trusted sources, such as the BlackBerry World storefront.
When you open an app for the first time, your device might display a list of the files and features that the
app wants to access. If something doesn't seem right to you, you can reject the app's request to access
an item. For example, you might download a game that requests access to your messages, which might
make sense if the game includes a feature to share your game score. However, if you aren't comfortable
with the game having the ability to compose and view your email messages, you can turn off access to
messages or delete the app. You can view or change permissions for most apps in your device settings.
For some apps, when you install the app, you are prompted to accept or decline all of the requested
permissions. If you decline, the prompt will appear again the first time you open the app. You can't
change the application permissions later unless you delete and reinstall the app.
Change or view app permissions
In some apps, if you turn off permissions, the app might not work as you expect. If an app isn’t working
as you expect it to, consider turning on some or all of the app permissions.

Wipe your device to delete your data
Before you wipe your BlackBerry device, consider backing up your data on a computer. A security wipe
is designed to permanently delete your data so it can't be recovered. This includes email accounts,
downloaded apps, media files, documents, browser bookmarks, and settings.
