Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

When I went to install the WYZE CAM app it seemed very intrusive, for instance, "App needs access to: ...view one or more of ; information about activity on the device, which apps are running, browsing history and bookmarks. Later in Wi-Fi information, APP needs access to "Allow the app to view information about Wi-Fi networking,whether Wi-Fi is enabled, and names of connected Wi-Fi devices." I would have liked to use the camera as an independent device, with video saved only to Micro SD card, but online access seems insecure. Why does WYZE Cam need access to my bookmarks,and browsing history? Or names of connected Wi-Fi devices? I boxed up my WYZE CAM before I installed the app on my Galaxy phone and returned it.
