XPrivacyLua
Really simple to use privacy manager for Android 6.0 Marshmallow and later (successor of XPrivacy).
- Freemium • Open Source
- Android
- Android Tablet
...
Revoking Android permissions from apps often let apps crash or malfunction. XPrivacyLua solves this by feeding apps fake data instead of real data.
FEATURES
- Simple to use
- Manage any user or system app
- Extensible
- Multi-user support
- Free and open source
- Restrictions
- Determine activity (fake unknown activity, see here)
- Get applications (hide installed apps and widgets)
- Get calendars (hide calendars)
- Get call log (hide call log)
- Get contacts (hide contacts with the pro option to allow (non) starred contacts, hide blocked numbers)
- Get location (fake location, hide NMEA messages)
- Get messages (hide MMS, SMS, SIM, voicemail)
- Get sensors (hide all available sensors)
- Read account name (fake name, mostly e-mail address)
- Read clipboard (fake paste)
- Read identifiers (fake build serial number, Android ID, advertising ID, GSF ID)
- Read notifications (fake status bar notifications)
- Read network data (hide cell info, Wi-Fi networks, fake Wi-Fi network name)
- Read sync data (hide sync data)
- Read telephony data (fake IMEI, MEI, SIM serial number, voicemail number, etc)
- Record audio (prevent recording)
- Record video (prevent recording)
- Send messages (prevent sending MMS, SMS, data)
- Use analytics (Fabric/Crashlytics, Facebook app events, Firebase Analytics, Google Analytic, Mixpanel, Segment)
- Use camera (fake camera not available and/or hide cameras)
- Use tracking (fake user agent for WebView only, Build properties, network/SIM country/operator)
The tracking restrictions will work only if the code of the target app was not obfuscated. The other restrictions will work always.

Hide: return empty list
Fake: return empty or fake value
It is possible to add custom restriction definitions, see FAQ for details.

I tried to understand how to implement it, but I got confused... Does it needs root?? I've found it to be an awesome idea, but relying on Xposed, made me more confuse about what should I do to use it properly. If someone could at least say me if it needs root, I would be very pleased
I miss the interface with prompts like in Xprivacy
