Richard2016 Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 When synchronising to Google Drive, Encompass requests for the following permissions: 1. View and manage the files in your Google Drive (https://developers.google.com/resources/api-libraries/documentation/appsactivity/v1/java/latest/com/google/api/services/appsactivity/AppsactivityScopes.html#DRIVE) 2. View and manage Google Drive files and folders that you have opened or created with this app The permission I'm concerned about is request permissions #1 which, explained in Google's own words is: -Upload, download, update, and delete files in your Google Drive-Create, access, update, and delete native Google documents in your Google Drive-Manage files and documents in your Google Drive (e.g., search, organize, and modify permissions and other metadata, such as title) Other apps only request #2 if I'm not mistaken. Please clarify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard2016 Posted August 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 Hi guys, any update on the permission concern? Will this be addressed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel-san Posted August 4, 2016 Report Share Posted August 4, 2016 Mine doesn't even sync after the first time anymore. It only syncs the first time I manually disconnect synchronizing from my Google Drive and then re-login, but after that it stops. I am running Hitman.Pro.Alert tho but I've tried disabling it and see if Enpass would sync, but it doesn't. Could it be a firewall issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jatin Sharma Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Hi @Richard2016 Although Enpass can work with permission #2 only in most of the time. But there are cases when we need permisson #1 also, like 1. You have configured folder sync in desktop app and that folder is being synced with google drive through google app. 2. You have manually uploaded a Enpass backup as sync_default.walletx. In these cases without permission #2, Enpass app on your phone will fail to fetch the Enpass data as it is not uploaded by Enpass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard2016 Posted August 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Hi @Jatin Sharma Thank you for taking the time to clarify that and it makes perfect sense in the use case you describe. Best Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
