Hi,

Creator of Sleep Easy here. I created this app for my own purpose and it has really worked well for me so far. Just thought of sharing it in case if it is useful for others. Feed backs are highly appreciated.

Why do you need so much permissions?

Do your app really needs:

run at startup

draw over other apps

read phone status and identity ?

Thanks for checking out. 'Run at startup' is needed to schedule sleep reminder notification and to restore notification when the phone is rebooted. I'm not entirely sure on why the other two permissions are being asked. This project is bootstrapped with React native, and may be it is default from that platform. I will check on this.
