<b>ABOUT THE PERMISSION</b>

<i>"...Can observe the text you type and actions you do..."</i>

Alas! It's threatening isn't it? Torchie needs permission to listen to your physical hardware (volume Button) Key presses only.

What if your phone has a physical hardware Keyboard phone? Torchie can listen to text - keys you type right? So, Android shows this. But, recent Android phones (except Blackberry Priv) does not have a physical hardware Keyboard (for typing) with only three hardware physical keys i.e. one power button and two volume buttons. Actually, It is Android's flaw showing this buggy permission to you!

Also, Torchie does not have 'Internet Permission'. So it's impossible to send anything to anyone!
