Candy crush update recently asked for permission to "read phone state". I fail to understand why candy crush would need to see my phone number and also phone numbers calling me / phones I call? Please explain. Game version 1.80.1.1

Hi Snigelfett- Thanks for posting on King Care. When installing our games you will be asked for permission to read phone status. This lets the app know when you’re in a call or receiving a call, so it can avoid interrupting this.

It also prevents game data from being lost when you receive a phone-call. 

I really hope this helps, please let me know if there is anything else that we can give you a hand with. :-) 

Have a sweet week!
