[Q] specific asking for permissions in apps - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This is the app page for hangouts (the screen shots)
I think it's the only app I have that has a permission that contains a drop down menu to ask me to allow or deny
Does any other app has this?

Its an SMS specific permission. Are you asking of any other SMS apps have this option?

App ops via the Xposed module or a custom ROM. Or whatever alternatives there are. Pretty sure it only allows that specific permission on stock because its premium SMS.

Restrict access to messages or apps?

Is there anyway to restrict access to applications on my phone?
I work with some sensitive emails so I can't access email on my phone unless I can find a way to lockdown applications.
The main applications I need to lock are my mail applications and messaging. Possibly browser.
Anyway of doing this?
It'd be good if you could.... stop my kids from nosing around parts of the phone I don't want them looking in!!
Found an app

[Q] Auto launcher shortcut on install?

For some reason my N5 seems to have stopped creating a shortcut on the launcher when I install a new app and I cant for the life of me find it...any clues please?!
I use this feature quite heavily as I run a simple one screen setup and tend to browse Play Store from a PC and send software to my phone during the day...that new installs dump to the desktop means I know theres something new for me to tidy up...whereas without this I'm huntimg through pages of the App Drawer trying to remember whats new,
It's the auto-add widgets setting in Play Store

[Q] Adding event to calendar from text message app

Hi all
Apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere. I've looked and can't find a solution.
I'm using Textra as my text messaging app on my Nexus 5.
On my old iPhone, it would auto detect dates and times in the body of a text message or email so that when you pressed the date, it would allow you to easily add an event to the calendar for the corresponding date.
Is there a way to do this on the Nexus 5? I don't mind changing my text messaging app if necessary.
Thank you for any assistance.
8sms has the option

You need root and an Xposed module, at least thats how it was for the LG G2.
The latest What's New update removed the app from the ring. So try updating the app. As for adding apps, as I said you need Xposed.
Hmm. Okay.
Thank you anyway.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How did you get drastic w/ icon?
I made it, but it doesn't work. App launches but gets authorization error like the app wasn't paid for even though its been purchased on the same account. I'm working on getting it running though, and ill release it if there's interest.
