Nice idea. I'll give it s spin once the permissions are dialed back a bit.

Seems like a nice compliment to a daily visit to Free Rice (a habit I need to get back into). Daily learning is good. Charity is good. What's not to like?

Yeah, the list of permissions asked seems a bit excessive, definitely kept me from installing the app.

The app has been updated, no more annoying permissions.
