The authorizations Android are important because they allow you to control which apps you can access on your phone. Android 11 offers more options so that you don’t give anything unnecessarily.

Once it is no longer open, the application will need to ask for your permission again to access it.

It's too easy to accidentally swipe up a notification and not know what it says. Android 11 includes a menunotification history handy to help avoid this problem. You'll need to enable it before you start collecting all notifications, so you should do it as soon as possible to avoid missing anything.
