Mobile applications often request sensitive permissions such as camera, microphone, location, contacts, and storage, which can threaten user privacy and data security. The lack of centralized monitoring mechanisms makes it difficult for users to clearly understand how their personal data is accessed and utilized. This study proposes a Privacy Dashboard for Android Applications that collects and analyzes permission and usage data through Android system APIs. The system evaluates application risk levels using rule-based scoring techniques and generates privacy scores for better transparency. It provides real-time monitoring and interactive graphical visualizations to present privacy insights in a user-friendly manner. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that the system is responsive, accurate, and effective in enhancing user awareness. The framework ultimately supports informed decision-making and strengthens mobile privacy protection.
