Understand the device permissions ILJI requests
Learn why notifications, contacts, photos, microphone, and location are requested.
6 min read
ILJI asks for device access when you start a feature that needs it. You do not need to allow every permission at once; the connected feature may simply remain unavailable when permission is denied.
What each permission is used for
- Notifications: Show reminders before schedules and notifications from team calendars.
- Calendar: Import events from calendars available on the device.
- Contacts: Choose a person on the device to fill a name and phone number in ILJI Contacts.
- Camera and photos: Take or choose before-and-after work photos for a schedule.
- Microphone and speech recognition: Dictate questions to ILJI AI.
- Location: Record a starting location when you choose to use it with a work timer.
- Phone-related access: Show names from ILJI Contacts for caller ID on Android.
Allow or change a permission
- 01
Open the feature again
If access has not been requested before, instructions may appear when you start the feature.
- 02
Find ILJI in device settings
If you denied access or chose not to be asked again, change it from the app's permission settings.
- 03
Allow only what you need
Turn on the item connected to the feature you want to use.
- 04
Return to ILJI and try again
Some devices may require reopening the app before the change is reflected.
If you prefer not to allow access
- You can still complete the other fields in a work form without photo access.
- Enter an ILJI contact manually instead of choosing from device contacts.
- Type an AI question instead of using dictation.
- Import from a supported .ics file instead of granting device calendar access.
- If your workflow does not need a start location, focus on the other timer records.
