I would have installed the app on my droid but I saw all the permissions and I am very cautious about permissions.I dont like that Firefox could be able to take pictures or video anytime if I accept the permissions to install and modify my content on MY phone

i think most reputable app vendors will offer some sort of documentation on how they use the granted permissions, since it is a fairly frequently asked question.

Phillip Your awesome,

Thanks for the answer to the permissions for android app install, I havent downloaded several apps because of these different types of permissions.
 Now do you think other apps have the same rock solid answers as Firefox did?
