To the developers of Celcom Life android app, why would you register such policy in your app?

Celcom has ccp elements maybe

Erase celcom before they erase u

Once they detect you want to migrate to Maxis, Digi or Umobile... the app will auto do factory reset as revenge

The hybrid framework is not even usable in some cases. How does a multimillion company able to do this is beyond me. The app itself is not native and crashes all the time.

Seems likely

nuke app

i guess, when you pay peanuts, you get monkey web developers....

this is shocking, you shouda viral it. first time, i see an app asking permission to erase all data and factory reset...

Is this Android or IOS version? I don't think Android version has such permissions.

Not the usual permission approval you see when opening an app. Yes this is from android. This is registered through device administration API in Android SDK.

Though it doesn't directly ask a user to accept/deny this permission on app level, but the question is, why would they need this in the first place?

Well its celcom. Their website isn't mobile friendly up until 1-2 years ago. Their mobile app has gone through multiple refresh and rebrand with crappy non untuitive ui every time. Their network hasn't got volte and vowifi support yet while the underdogs umobile and yes4g got it for a few years already. They're the cimb of mobile telco.

Awww sir its hurttt awwww

Most people don't even read the permissions

just checked my phone and yes the app has the rights to wipe the phone.

wtf

Android's Find My Device app is acceptable to have this feature, but Celcom Life? I can't even...

Find my device has a tolerable reason.

But celcom telco app?
Digi, Maxis, Umobile, unifi apps did not need such permission to be usable.

Someone send the pic to Celcom fb or twitter. Viral it fast
