I would love to have the ability to expand a reason for why the app need access to things like calls and contacts.

Does it need access to calls so it can mute itself? That is different than needing access to calls for some other reason. Maybe the reasons are a lie, but if they take the time to put in something that makes some kind of sense at least I’m not second guessing why they need some seemingly random thing.

Also it would be great if the access was more obviously granular. Let them ask for the whole thing or specific parts, because if they pick specific parts that is a sign that they are actually using it for the stated purpose.
