Hi, title’s rather explanatory I think but I was considering getting a pair of TWS buds for convenience sake since cables are sometimes not an option for me. But I know a lot of modern buds make you get apps that request a large amount of questionable permissions(even if you deny them, the requests in and of itself feels like a red flag) and likely send your data away. So I was wondering if there were any options that were cleaner. Thanks for the help!

Nah, I’ve just heard some keep features like ANC and stuff locked there. Never really owned a pair myself so I wanted to ask for more info first.

Really glad to hear all the advice so far too! I’ll look into the recommendations given so far.

Usually the only things locked behind an application are custom equalisation, and modifiable earphone buttons. You probably can even uninstall it after you’re happy with the above settings.
