Android's permissions are not granular enough and forcing the user to accept them all or not use the app is a security/privacy fail. I love that Android apps can access the telephony API but the permissions for that need to be more fine grained and the toggles to enable them need to be discreet over individual permissions.

Discreet toggles and the request dialogs are roughly the only thing I prefer iOS to Android on. Too bad the rest of iOS is a prison.
