I would greatly appreciate a separate option to "Show System Apps", because I do like the detail look into the permissions (restricting by subpermission), but I do not want to have the screen cluttered with all the system apps, which I normally do not change any more.

I don't like to have a lot of options, so I won't fix this, sorry.

Well, I know, there is no discussing with you (its your app anyway).

But it is a small change and does help. Think about it: System apps do not (normally) change. So, after you have restricted these, there is mostly no need to display them. Just makes the list and the loading time longer.

If you do not like to many options, group them into subcatagories. That's what other apps do. Then the settings dialog can still be easy to read. It is indeed very long already, but that is because of the fake data settings. I would put them into a subcatogory ("Adjust fake data" or similar).

So the settings would then just be:

  • Adjust fake data
  • Filter by permission
  • Expert mode
  • Show system apps

Anyway, that's my suggestion. :-)

Thanks for your suggestions.
System apps, like Play store do change however.

The next release will have a setting to filter system applications.

I agree with NeuerUser, normally we don't have to restrict the system apps, or have to change these restrictions that often!

I'm very glad to hear that it will be part of 1.5 :)
Thanks to both of you!
