The application has access to the following:
System tools
automatically start at boot
Allows an application to have itself started as soon as the system has finished booting. This can make it take longer to start the phone and allow the application to slow down overall performance of the phone by constantly running.
modify global system settings
Allows an application to modify the systemʼs settings data. Malicious applications can corrupt your systemʼs configuration.
disable keylock
Allows an application to disable the keylock and any associated password security. A legitimate example of this is the phone disabling the keylock when receiving an incoming phone call, then re-enabling the keylock when the call is finished.
Your personal information
read contact data
Allows an application to read all of the contact (address) data stored on your phone. Malicious applications can use this to send your data to other people.
Storage
modify/delete SD card contents
Allows an application to write to the SD card.
Phone calls
read phone state and identity
Allows the application to access the phone features of the device. An application with this permission can determine the phone number and serial number of this phone, whether a call is active, the number that call is connected to, ect.

Works Great. Thanks PA. In app drawer Contact Owner is indexed as Owner.

Doesn't work when an alarm is set - Morotola Atrix As others have posted, when setting an alarm on a Motorola Atrix, the contact info isn't shown. Unsure if this is due to Atrix build or Contact Owner, but either way renders the app useless to me. Better for me to wake up on time every day than to have my contact info shown.

Warning - May Crash HTC Phones When I tried to install this app, it warned that it may crash HTC-built phones, so I did not install it. So, I'm wondering why this download page has a notice which says "This app is compatibile with your Virgin Mobile HTC One V", with a checkmark, when the program itself disagrees.
