[BUG] App requesting reminders access

[MED1975]

When launching the app for the first time you are prompted to grant access to Reminders

The app should not need this access or prompt for it.

Version 3.4.1 macOS 14.4.1 M1 iMac

I am able to reset this request using

tccutil reset Reminders com.alienator88.Pearcleaner

And on subsequent launches the permission is requested again.

I honestly have no idea why that would be coming up, as the entitlements and the code only requests access to Full Disk permissions and Accessibility/System Events permissions. In order to request access to Reminders, I'd need to be using this function here and there's no trace of that in my app: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/eventkit/ekeventstore/4162273-requestfullaccesstoreminders

Pearcleaner Entitlements:

<key>com.apple.security.automation.apple-events</key>
<true/>
<key>com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-only</key>
<true/>

Full Disk permission request code: https://github.com/alienator88/Pearcleaner/blob/71a3b030d92d54e7fea3a7cad8a63c671e409033/Pearcleaner/Logic/Utilities.swift#L88

Accessibility permission request code: https://github.com/alienator88/Pearcleaner/blob/71a3b030d92d54e7fea3a7cad8a63c671e409033/Pearcleaner/Logic/Utilities.swift#L121

Has this always been an issue for you? I've had no other reports of this since the app was released in November '23.

Hi

Thanks for your reply. This is the first time I have installed your app, and is on a brand new Sonoma install so it’s very odd indeed.

As an aside, I am also prompted on every start of your app to grant other permissions. See the 2nd screenshots that shows what is going on.

I'm not seeing any attached screenshots btw, just the screenshot text.

If you go to your macos Settings > Privacy & Security, do you see Pearcleaner in the list for Full Disk Access and Accessibility? If no, try to drag the app in there and enable the toggle.

Side note, is your profile on your mac a standard user or admin user?

Is this still an issue?

It was but I have removed it from my Mac now. Sent from my iPhone
