In Android 14, you can manually revoke the USE_FULL_SCREEN_INTENT permission from apps so they can't send you full-screen notifications. Later this year, Google Play will auto revoke this permission from newly installed apps that don't provide calling or alarm functionality!

  • Users will be able to manually revoke that permission on Android 14 (already available in the current beta under Apps -> Special app access -> Full screen notifications);

  • Google Play will auto-revoke those permissions from newly installed apps unless they provide call or alarm functionality;

  • This permission will remain for apps that were installed before the Android 14 update.

    Probably all apps that has some voip calling functionality.

    Whatsapp, messenger, viber (is that still a thing?) and similar

    Edit, just saw

    Unless they provide call or alarm functionality

    So they should be safe

    Possibly some security related apps to auth for banking and stuff, not sure how they work behind the scenes.

    Same goes for some 2FA apps i guess?
