I think these changes was already implemented.

Specification updated.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AccountPrivileges?action=diffrev2=20rev1=19
(This change also included part of the design for bug 1224756.)
The changes step by step:
A. Other app access is renamed to App permissions.
B. Since App permissions is no longer other, Location is included in App
permissions.
C. Location also remains at the top level of Security Privacy, because
it's not *just* about app access to location. So you can get to that screen
from two places.
** Changed in: ubuntu-ux
Status: In Progress = Fix Committed
** Changed in: ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu)
Status: New = Triaged
** Description changed:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityAndPrivacySettings lists various privacy
settings for the phone. Location was one of the first designed and
implemented, but since then, 'Other app access' was added to accommodate
video and audio recording. First, 'other app access' is not clear-- if
anything, it should say 'other service access' because video and audio
recording represent services with trust store integration. Second, there
really isn't any reason why Location shouldn't be grouped with the other
trust-store-enabled services and it is awkward that it is separated out.
- While this requires design input, I suggest the following:
- - Security Privacy
- - Services access
- - Camera
- - Location
- - Microphone (Note: currently 'Mic' is used, which should also be fixed)
+ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityAndPrivacySettings#Phone: “Location”
+ should navigate to the “Location” screen. “App permissions” should
+ navigate to the “App permissions” screen.
- With this layout, we reduce the number of entries on the 'Security
- Privacy' page and have one place for trust-store-enabled services. This
- allows us to add more trust-store-enabled services in the future.
-
- Marking High because it is user facing. Not adding rtm14 because it
- seems to me that this could be provided later (feel free to adjust).
+ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AccountPrivileges#Phone: Except for Online
+ Accounts, which has its own screen, these access lists should be
+ summarized in the “App permissions” screen of System Settings ... the
+ item should go to a screen listing “Apps that have requested access to
+ your {property}:”, except for the “Location” item, which should go to
+ the same “Location” screen as its uncle item in “Security Privacy”.

[Bug 1374570] Re: [system-settings] 'location access' and 'other app access' separation is confusing
I wasn't trying to say that nothing is going to change, just giving some idea of the landscape of possible designs. Consider Online Accounts. Besides notifications, they are the other big thing where an app's ability to use them can be toggled externally (and I've just discovered they're controlled by trust-store). Now, we could put Online Accounts inside Security Privacy, alongside Camera and Microphone ... but people wouldn't think of them as a security/privacy thing, so they'd be hard to find there. Alternatively, we could promote Camera and Microphone to the top level of System Settings, alongside Online Accounts ... but that would be giving high prominence to settings that are neither frequent nor urgent. So that's an example of where frequency/urgency trumps logical grouping. A smaller possible change would be to abolish Other app access, hoisting its contents up alongside Location inside Security Privacy. Location, Contacts, Camera, Microphone, etc. What do you think? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1374570 Title: [system-settings] 'location access' and 'other app access' separation is confusing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1374570/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

A smaller possible change would be to abolish Other app access, hoisting its contents up alongside Location inside Security Privacy. Location, Contacts, Camera, Microphone, etc. What do you think? Like you, I'm not sure all of them should be at that same level, but looking at the system settings on my phone, I can imagine this and I can see that it would be a lot clearer. This might be a reasonable short /mid-term solution. (FYI, online accounts doesn't use the lp:trust-store library, but it does use a similar concept (and implementation) as trust-store). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1374570 Title: [system-settings] 'location access' and 'other app access' separation is confusing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1374570/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm not sure all of them should be at that same level - this was not clear: I too am not sure that all of them should be at the toplevel in Security Privacy or if it would be best to group them all under something like 'App access'. That said, I'm not changing my stance that I do think putting them all in the toplevel is a lot clearer and easier for people to find things. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1374570 Title: [system-settings] 'location access' and 'other app access' separation is confusing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1374570/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
