Clip-Stack as accessibility service security issue due to Android bug #50

Open bungabunga opened 8 years ago

There's an Android bug that disables FDE encryption on your device whenever you grant some app accessibility access.

I wonder if the accessiblity service feature of Clip-Stack shouldn't be removed due to this bug.

Instead of disabling the accessibility service, Clip Stack should direct users to re-enable strong encryption by changing the password, or even setting it to the existing one, after being granted accessibility permissions.
