Permissions

The program requests the following permissions:

android.permission.SET_ANIMATION_SCALE
android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION
android.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS
android.permission.INTERNET
android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE

These are required to change your settings and also to enable analytics and bug-tracking.

Known issues

Some ROMs (mostly Gingerbread) do not have battery history activity built-in. The app will warn you if you try to run this option and this activity is not built into the ROM. A feature to replace the missing activity may be included in a future version, but the workaround is to use a ROM which contains this missing activity (e.g. CyanogenMod)
The font size setting is not always respected by apps which often have font sizes hard-wired. The only work-around is to use the LCD density function in Blade Buddy to change the overall font size.
