The panels that follow this model include Camera, Microphone, Voice

                activation (apps listening for spoken commands), Notifications, Account
                info, Contacts, Calendar, Phone calls, Email, Tasks (to-do list), Messaging,
                Documents, Pictures, Videos, and File system (the ability to access any files
                at all).


                A few other items on this list are missing the “on/off for the entire
                computer” control—you get only an on/off switch for your account, plus
                control over individual apps. These items include Radios (Bluetooth, Wi-Fi,

                and cellular, if you have it), Other devices (mainly, advertising “beacons” in
                stores), Background apps (which apps are allowed to run in the

                background), and App diagnostics.




                  Note
                  For many of these screens, the “Choose which apps can access” list is probably empty on your
                  machine. That’s because you don’t have any apps that seek to access the corresponding
                  component of your computer.
