App permissions that matter when using Tor Browser

Tor protects the connection, not the apps sitting next to it.

Third-party keyboards

A keyboard app sees everything you type. Use the system keyboard or one you trust, with "full access" or cloud features off.

Clipboard access

Recent Android and iOS versions show when apps read the clipboard. Remove apps that do it without reason.

Accessibility services

Apps with accessibility access can read the screen. Only allow tools you actually need.

Screen recording

Check that no app is allowed to record the screen in the background before you open any vortex url.

Review keyboard, clipboard, accessibility and screen-recording permissions before using Tor on a phone.
