Judge permissions by whether they are necessary
There is only one test: is the permission directly needed to complete a trade? Camera for scanning and verification, notifications for price alerts; beyond that most requests can be declined.
What to prepare before you start
These five things cover almost every delay people run into: List what you actually use: scanning, identity verification, price alerts.
Find the permission settings entry on your phone. Understand that denying a permission disables the matching feature.
Plan to review permissions periodically.
A recommended permission setup
This setup balances function and safety: Camera: enable as needed for scanning and document capture; turn off when not in use.
Notifications: recommended, for price and login alerts, and you can fine-tune at the system level. Photos: enable temporarily only when uploading documents or screenshots.
Contacts and SMS: always deny; a trading app has no legitimate reason to read them. Location: enable if your region requires it for compliance, otherwise it can be off.
Review quarterly: re-check grants in system settings.
Fees, limits and processing times
Numbers change from time to time, always confirm on the official fee page before you commit size: Turn on Google Authenticator or a hardware key, then add withdrawal address whitelisting and an anti-phishing code to every email you receive.
Review the device list periodically, and use the global lock if you ever suspect a session is still active somewhere else. Official entry: type binance.com yourself or use your own bookmark, then check the padlock and the exact spelling before typing any password.
App install: search the publisher name "Binance" on App Store / Google Play, or pull the APK from the official download page rather than a third-party store. The core line-up covers spot, margin, USD-margined and coin-margined futures, and options in supported regions.
Earn products, Binance Pay and the Web3 wallet sit alongside the exchange for users who want yield, payments or self-custody.
The Binance-specific part
The official Binance client requests the minimum; if you see extra prompts, first confirm you installed the official build. Keep login and withdrawal alerts on, since they are your first line of defence against anomalies.
Frequently asked questions
Does denying a permission break the app
Only the matching feature is affected; core trading and viewing keep working.
Why would an app read contacts
A trading app has no legitimate reason, so treat such a request as suspicious.
Can I change permissions later
Yes, at any time in system settings, and the app will prompt again when the feature is used.

Keep permissions off for features you never use. If a permission turns itself back on, check whether you installed a non-official build.
