this permission would allow the app to download and install other apks silently, which is obviously dangerous. However, it doesn't seem like it's in use, and the Android documentation says it's not granted for third-party (non-Google system) apps. Is that true? I haven't tested.

I don't know how many of these are doing location tracking, or if any of them are. But putting a spotlight on these attendance apps and student privacy (or lack thereof) is important nonetheless. Seems like there's a cottage industry to investigate: https://play.google.com/store/search?q=attendance&c=apps … 5/

are you familiar with these kinds of apps actively in use in K-12 school districts,
@douglevin ? Most of them seem catered for K-12 and not college.1 reply 0 proslijeđenih tweetova 1 korisnik označava da mu se sviđa -
I'm not aware of their use in US K-12 (as of yet); my understanding is that their target use cases are large lecture college courses and/or collegiate 'student success initiatives' (which 'monitor' students in an attempt to keep them on track, esp student athletes).

thx for the swift reply, that's good to know. the devs/marketers at least seem to believe they're targeting all age groups. See for ex.

So, definitely there are apps and tools for K-12 educators to use to help them take attendance of students, as well as services to track kids commuting home on school buses. None of these require **a student** to have a phone to my knowledge.

Having said that, I haven't looked deeply into this... Of interest:https://turtler.io/news/top-school-bus-gps-tracking-systems …
