For those interested in the more technical aspects of this app, it requests the use of the following android security permissions:

SEND_SMS - The app uses text messages (SMS) in order to communicate with the Vodafone IOU services

RECEIVE_SMS – If an IOU Buddy request or confirmation text message is sent to your phone, this enables the app to see the incoming message and provide a more user friendly notification to you.

READ_CONTACTS – This allows the app to access the address book on your phone when using the IOU Buddy service.

VIBRATE – If an IOU Buddy request or confirmation text message is sent to your phone, this allows the app to briefly vibrate your phone (when the phone supports the functionality)

READ_PHONE_STATE – Not directly used by the app, however a small number of phones require this permission to be requested/enabled in order to send text messages.

READ_CALL_LOG - Again, not directly used by the app, however some phones require this permission to be set due to the READ_CONTACTS permission being set.

This app does not access the internet and so does not use data traffic.
