Abstract

See full text

A computer-implemented method for providing controls for application behavior may include (1) identifying an application that is distributed via an application repository and that is configured to use a permission on a computing platform that enables the application to access a feature of the computing platform, (2) receiving a request to reconfigure the application to intercept and interfere with attempts by the application to use the permission, (3) reconfiguring the application, in response to the request, to intercept and interfere with attempts by the application to use the permission, (4) determining that an updated version of the application is available via the application repository, and (5) reconfiguring the updated version of the application to intercept and interfere with attempts by the application to use the permission in response to an instruction to update the application. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
