Nice app but screen display is faulty

I’ve been a Consumer Reports subscriber for decades and recently learned of this app. I installed it today on my iPhone 13 Pro and noticed right away that wording within the app is super huge and that some items extend off the screen. I was able to set it up and configure many settings. However there are items at the bottom of the screen that are cut off as they extend beyond the visible screen area. Also, when stepping through the companies selections and trying to configure them i often see the Learn More button covered up by the Skip This Company link which seems superimposed over the other. These issues need to be fixed to make the app truly usable. My phone is running the very latest IOS.

App does not work on new iPhone iOS

Downloaded this app today and it does not work. Had to sign up a second time with a different email as first one I couldn’t get past the What state do you live in ? screen and after I signed out, I could never log back in, get an error message or a screen freeze.I got in on the second try, setting up new account with another email but my home screen is blank, won’t set up Auto Requests, won’t save additional email addresses (get an error message with a weird header screen) and generally won’t function. I have done the user agreement, authorization, phone, primary email address and legal name Auto and Home are blank with a faint spinning ball. Requests says to get swiping but nothing happens when you swipe I’m assuming its an Apple issue but at the moment this app is non-functioning.

Easy, informative and empowering!

Everything I needed and more! I’ve always been so overwhelmed by where my data lives, what it’s being used for, let alone how I can control it. I’m learning so much from Permission Slip, and feel like I finally have some power back. Thank you PS!

Multiple email addresses problem

Great idea but I second the reviewer who points out that sending a bundle of my email addresses together is actually the opposite of helpful if (when) the receiver combines the addresses into one identity. The solution seems simple though: Send each address independently, as if a separate person is sending, rather than "bundled" as a single request.

Good Idea but it will not work

Tried installing this several times with no luck. Screens froze and no confirmatory email was ever sent to activate account. That makes me wonder just what is going on and can I trust them as before account activation they say they need all this private info-phone number, street address and any and all email addresses. And this is before account is active. Why not afterwards? I used a "hide my email" so if my email gets sold I will know who sold it.

Well designed app for safeguarding personal info

This app is very elegant and functional. It allowed me to see what companies have access to my personal info, and prevent them from selling that info. It seems to parse through the fine print and legalese of each individual user agreement I’ve signed and shows me some easy options for safeguarding my info. I did some of this manually, then found the ‘auto request’ feature which seems to work well at just automating my privacy requests.

Great way to stop/learn about 3rd party tracking!

I’m a big fan of learning how things work behind the scenes and companies selling our data is something that’s confusing and really behind the scenes. A lot of companies make a lot of cabbage from us without us understanding how! Like how does a company sell Me-ness based off of the things I do online etc... ?Since that’s beyond my knowledge, although I’m learning more each day, I’d prefer they don’t go around selling gossip about me. This app does that!

If you use multiple email addresses, this leaks those addresses

Unfortunately the app submits all of the email addresses you supply with every request you make. The goal is understandable (to increase the chance that the recipient will find your account), but it gives the target company valuable personal info which they didn't previously have. For privacy and security reasons I use a custom email address for every account (easy if you have a catch-all address), so it is at best pointless to submit all those addresses with every request. At worst it allows the receiving company to cross-reference those addresses and learn more about me from and of my personal information that they've acquired elsewhere, but which they didn't previously know belonged to me. Request: please let me specify which email address(es) to submit with each request. Don't make me enter all the addresses in advance, and don't automatically save the address because that would just mean I have to tediously delete it every time.

Beware of Permission Slip App: My Nightmare Experience and Warning to Others

I am writing this review to warn you about the dangers of using this app. I made the mistake of assuming it would only delete my saved data from certain companies, but instead it erased my entire account details and left me with a nightmare of a situation. This app has caused me so many problems and headaches.I thought it would be similar to the privacy app Jumbo, which does an amazing job at explaining why it matters to control your data privacy and walks you through each step. Unfortunately, Permission Slip did not do a great job of highlighting the potential impacts of assuming it's only going to delete your saved data from certain companies. It completely deletes all your account details and erases your account completely.The app claims that you can revoke its ability to close your accounts, but when I tried to find that capability, it was nowhere to be found. I even wrote an email to the company, but received no response back. This app is full of dark patterns and now I'm worried about all of my accounts, including others they intend to support like Apple, Google, and even cell phone carriers.I highly advise against using this app and wished I never had used it in the first place. Please be cautious and don't blindly trust this app, even though it's "powered by consumer reports

My data agent…

Companies harvest and sell our data for profit. It’s often done without our consent. Have you heard of a data broker? They’ve heard of you. This app makes it simple and fun to take back your data. It’s refreshing and empowering. Eager to see more firms on the list. Glad that the auto request feature is watching out for new actors.
