Requires waaay too many permissions. Why does it need to be able to take pictures and record video?
Picture and video permission is for linking a peer by reading its QR code.
Thanks for clarifying.
I guess for barcode to connect to devices (device key sharing), it is optional, if you share something with other people (family)
each folder has its own permissions and allowed devices
you can add your devices manually and those are auto detected on LAN, you just need to confirm device key
Ah, thanks for clarifying.
