Checkers (AKA Draughts) is one of the world's most popular board games. The earliest records of this game date back to the Egyptians 3500 years ago. In more recent times this has been most favoured by the USA and Scotland, the two countries to provide the most World champions in this game.

This allows various bundled options but is used simply to allow the Home key press to be detected and for no other purpose.
2. GET_TASKS
This permission is used simply to detect the difference between a program exit and entry into a new sub app.

This is used simply to ensure that exit ads cannot interrupt a phone call.
4. ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
This is simply to allow local ads to only appear in that local territory.
