App-ops are used for two purposes: Access control and tracking.
App-ops cover a wide variety of functionality from helping with runtime permissions access control and tracking to battery consumption tracking.
Access control
App-ops can either be controlled for each uid or for each package. Which one is used depends on the API provider maintaining this app-op. For any security or privacy related app-op the provider needs to control the app-op for per uid as all security and privacy is based on uid in Android.
To control access the app-op can be set to a mode to:
MODE_DEFAULT- Default behavior, might differ from app-op or app-op
MODE_ALLOWED- Allow the access
MODE_IGNORED- Don't allow the access, i.e. don't perform the requested action or return no or placeholder data
MODE_ERRORED- Throw a
SecurityExceptionon access. This can be suppressed by using a...noThrowmethod to check the mode
API providers need to check the mode returned by noteOp(String, int, String) if they are are allowing
access to operations gated by the app-op. unsafeCheckOp(String, int, String) should be used to check the
mode if no access is granted. E.g. this can be used for displaying app-op state in the UI or
when checking the state before later calling noteOp(String, int, String) anyway.
If an operation refers to a time span (e.g. a audio-recording session) the API provider
should use startOp(String, int, String) and finishOp(String, int, String) instead of noteOp(String, int, String).
Runtime permissions and app-ops
Each platform defined runtime permission (beside background modifiers) has an associated app
op which is used for tracking but also to allow for silent failures. I.e. if the runtime
permission is denied the caller gets a SecurityException, but if the permission is
granted and the app-op is MODE_IGNORED then the callers gets placeholder behavior, e.g.
location callbacks would not happen.
App-op permissions
App-ops permissions are platform defined permissions that can be overridden. The security
check for app-op permissions should by default check the permission grant
state. If the app-op state is set to MODE_ALLOWED or MODE_IGNORED the app-op
state should be checked instead of the permission grant state.
This functionality allows to grant access by default to apps fulfilling the requirements for a certain permission level. Still the behavior can be overridden when needed.
Tracking
App-ops track many important events, including all accesses to runtime permission protected
APIs. This is done by tracking when an app-op was noted or
started. The tracked data can only be read by system components.
Only noteOp(String, int, String)/startOp(String, int, String) are tracked; unsafeCheckOp(String, int, String) is not tracked.
Hence it is important to eventually call noteOp(String, int, String) or startOp(String, int, String) when providing
access to protected operations or data.
Some apps are forwarding access to other apps. E.g. an app might get the location from the
system's location provider and then send the location further to a 3rd app. In this case the
app passing on the data needs to call noteProxyOp(String, String) to signal the access proxying. This
might also make sense inside of a single app if the access is forwarded between two parts of
the tagged with different attribution tags.
An app can register an OnOpNotedCallback to get informed about what accesses the
system is tracking for it. As each runtime permission has an associated app-op this API is
particularly useful for an app that want to find unexpected private data accesses.

Constants
MODE_ALLOWED
public static final int MODE_ALLOWED
Result from checkOp(String, int, String), noteOp(String, int, String), startOp(String, int, String): the given caller is
allowed to perform the given operation.
Constant Value: 0 (0x00000000)
MODE_DEFAULT
public static final int MODE_DEFAULT
Result from checkOp(String, int, String), noteOp(String, int, String), startOp(String, int, String): the given caller should
use its default security check. This mode is not normally used; it should only be used
with appop permissions, and callers must explicitly check for it and deal with it.
Constant Value: 3 (0x00000003)
MODE_ERRORED
public static final int MODE_ERRORED
Result from checkOpNoThrow(String, int, String), noteOpNoThrow(String, int, String), startOpNoThrow(String, int, String): the
given caller is not allowed to perform the given operation, and this attempt should
cause it to have a fatal error, typically a SecurityException.
Constant Value: 2 (0x00000002)
MODE_FOREGROUND
public static final int MODE_FOREGROUND
Special mode that means "allow only when app is in foreground." This is not
returned from unsafeCheckOp(String, int, String), noteOp(String, int, String), startOp(String, int, String). Rather,
unsafeCheckOp(String, int, String) will always return MODE_ALLOWED (because it is always
possible for it to be ultimately allowed, depending on the app's background state),
and noteOp(String, int, String) and startOp(String, int, String) will return MODE_ALLOWED when the app
being checked is currently in the foreground, otherwise MODE_IGNORED.
The only place you will this normally see this value is through
unsafeCheckOpRaw(String, int, String), which returns the actual raw mode of the op. Note that because
you can't know the current state of the app being checked (and it can change at any
point), you can only treat the result here as an indication that it will vary between
MODE_ALLOWED and MODE_IGNORED depending on changes in the background
state of the app. You thus must always use noteOp(String, int, String) or startOp(String, int, String) to do
the actual check for access to the op.
Constant Value: 4 (0x00000004)
MODE_IGNORED
public static final int MODE_IGNORED
Result from checkOp(String, int, String), noteOp(String, int, String), startOp(String, int, String): the given caller is
not allowed to perform the given operation, and this attempt should
silently fail (it should not cause the app to crash).

Public methods
checkOp
public int checkOp (String op, int uid, String packageName)
Check whether an application can perform an operation.
For platform versions before Build.VERSION_CODES.BAKLAVA, this is
not a security check; you must use noteOp(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) or startOp(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) for your actual security
checks. This function can just be used for a quick check to see if an operation has been
disabled for the application, as an early reject of some work.
For platform versions equal to or after Build.VERSION_CODES.BAKLAVA, it
does the same security check as noteOp(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) and
startOp(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String), and should be preferred to use.
This API does not modify the time stamp or other data about the operation.

String: The operation to check. One of the OPSTR_* constants.
This value cannot be null. |
uid |

int |
packageName |
String: This value cannot be null. |
| Returns | |
|---|---|
int |
|
noteOp
public int noteOp (String op, int uid, String packageName, String attributionTag, String message)
Make note of an application performing an operation and check if the application is allowed to perform it.
If this is a check that is not preceding the protected operation, use
unsafeCheckOp(String, int, String) instead.
The identity of the package the app-op is noted for is specified by the
uid and packageName parameters. If this is noted for a regular app both
should be set and the package needs to be part of the uid. In the very rare case that an
app-op is noted for an entity that does not have a package name, the package can be
null. As it is possible that a single process contains more than one package the
packageName should be read from the context of the
caller of the API (in the app process) that eventually triggers this check. If this op is
not noted for a running process the packageName cannot be read from the context, but
it should be clear which package the note is for.
If the uid and packageName do not match this return
MODE_IGNORED.
Beside the access check this method also records the access. While the access check is
based on uid and/or packageName the access recording is done based on the
packageName and attributionTag. The attributionTag should be
read from the same context the package name is read from.
In the case the check is not related to an API call, the attributionTag should be
null. Please note that e.g. registering a callback for later is still an API call and
the code should store the attribution tag along the package name for being used in this
method later.
The message parameter only needs to be set when this method is
- not
OnOpNotedCallback.onAsyncNoted(AsyncNotedAppOp) callback. A good example of a useful
message is including the System.identityHashCode(Object) of the listener that will
receive data or the name of the manifest-receiver.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
op |
String: The operation to note. One of the OPSTR_* constants.
This value cannot be null. |
uid |
int: The uid of the application attempting to perform the operation. |
packageName |
String: The name of the application attempting to perform the operation.
This value may be null. |
attributionTag |
String: The attribution tag of the
calling context or null for default attribution |
message |
String: A message describing why the op was noted
This value may be null. |
| Returns | |
|---|---|
int |
Returns MODE_ALLOWED if the operation is allowed, or
MODE_IGNORED if it is not allowed and should be silently ignored (without
causing the app to crash). |
| Throws | |
|---|---|
SecurityException |
If the app has been configured to crash on this op. |
noteOpNoThrow
public int noteOpNoThrow (String op, int uid, String packageName, String attributionTag, String message)
Like noteOp(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) but instead of throwing a
SecurityException it returns MODE_ERRORED.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
op |
String: This value cannot be null. |
uid |
int |
packageName |
String: This value cannot be null. |
attributionTag |
String: This value may be null. |
message |

public int noteOpNoThrow (String op, int uid, String packageName)
This method was deprecated
in API level 30.
Use noteOpNoThrow(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) instead
| Parameters | |

op |
String: This value cannot be null. |
uid |

noteProxyOp
public int noteProxyOp (String op, String proxiedPackageName, int proxiedUid, String proxiedAttributionTag, String message)
Make note of an application performing an operation on behalf of another application when
handling an IPC. This function will verify that the calling uid and proxied package name
match, and if not, return MODE_IGNORED. If this call succeeds, the last execution
time of the operation for the proxied app and your app will be updated to the current time.
| Parameters | |

permissionToOp
public static String permissionToOp (String permission)
Gets the app-op name associated with a given permission.
The app-op name is one of the public constants defined
in this class such as OPSTR_COARSE_LOCATION.
This API is intended to be used for mapping runtime
permissions to the corresponding app-op.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
permission |
String: The permission.
This value cannot be null. |
| Returns | |
|---|---|
String |
The app-op associated with the permission or null. |
setOnOpNotedCallback
public void setOnOpNotedCallback (Executor asyncExecutor, AppOpsManager.OnOpNotedCallback callback)
Set a new OnOpNotedCallback.
There can only ever be one collector per process. If there currently is another callback set, this will fail.
Note that if an app has multiple processes registering for this callback, the system would
fan out async op noted callbacks to each of the processes, resulting in the same data being
delivered multiple times to an app, which is usually undesired. To avoid this, consider
listening to async ops only in one process. See
ERROR(/#setOnOpNotedCallback(java.util.concurrent.Executor,android.app.AppOpsManager.OnOpNotedCallback,int)) for how to do this.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
asyncExecutor |
Executor: executor to execute OnOpNotedCallback.onAsyncNoted on, null to unset
Callback and listener events are dispatched through this
Executor, providing an easy way to control which thread is
used. To dispatch events through the main thread of your
application, you can use
Context.getMainExecutor().
Otherwise, provide an Executor that dispatches to an appropriate thread. |
callback |
AppOpsManager.OnOpNotedCallback: listener to set, null to unset |
| Throws | |
|---|---|
IllegalStateException |
If another callback is already registered |

startWatchingActive
public void startWatchingActive (String[] ops, Executor executor, AppOpsManager.OnOpActiveChangedListener callback)
Start watching for changes to the active state of app-ops. An app-op may be long running and it has a clear start and stop delimiters. If an op is being started or stopped by any package you will get a callback. To change the watched ops for a registered callback you need to unregister and register it again.
If you don't hold the android.Manifest.permission#WATCH_APPOPS permission
you can watch changes only for your UID.

ops |
String: The operations to watch.
This value cannot be null. |
executor |
Executor: Callback and listener events are dispatched through this
Executor, providing an easy way to control which thread is
used. To dispatch events through the main thread of your
application, you can use
Context.getMainExecutor().
Otherwise, provide an Executor that dispatches to an appropriate thread.
This value cannot be null. |
callback |

unsafeCheckOp
public int unsafeCheckOp (String op, int uid, String packageName)
Check whether an application might be able to perform an operation.
For platform versions before Build.VERSION_CODES.BAKLAVA, this is
not a security check; you must use noteOp(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) or startOp(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) for your actual security
checks. This function can just be used for a quick check to see if an operation has been
disabled for the application, as an early reject of some work.
For platform versions equal to or after Build.VERSION_CODES.BAKLAVA, this
is no longer an unsafe check, and it does the same security check as noteOp(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String) and startOp(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String).
However, it's preferred to use checkOp(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String), since the word "unsafe"
in the name of this API is no longer accurate.
This API does not modify the time stamp or other data about the operation.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
op |
String: The operation to check. One of the OPSTR_* constants.
This value cannot be null. |
uid |
int: The user id of the application attempting to perform the operation. |
packageName |
String: The name of the application attempting to perform the operation.
This value cannot be null. |
| Returns | |
|---|---|
int |
Returns MODE_ALLOWED if the operation is allowed, or
MODE_IGNORED if it is not allowed and should be silently ignored (without
causing the app to crash). |
| Throws | |
|---|---|
SecurityException |
If the app has been configured to crash on this op. |
unsafeCheckOpNoThrow
public int unsafeCheckOpNoThrow (String op, int uid, String packageName)
Like unsafeCheckOp(java.lang.String, int, java.lang.String) but instead of throwing a
SecurityException it returns MODE_ERRORED.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
op |
String: This value cannot be null. |
uid |
int |
packageName |
String: This value cannot be null. |
| Returns | |

| Parameters | |
|---|---|
op |
String: This value cannot be null. |
uid |
int |
packageName |
String: This value cannot be null. |
| Returns | |
|---|---|
