Hey Guys,
Big Thanks goes to @amryksr for giving us this wonderful and educative contest.
I mentioned educative because you can’t participate in a contest about something you don’t know and I am glad to participate in this contest.


After going through the Authorized App on steemworld.org, I am finally here to present to you about the research and what I have learnt on the app.

To my understanding, I think steemworld was created for we the steem users to be able to access some features like the delegation and other related activities…

But I'm here to talk to you about another App that can be found on the steemworld and I in particular never knew about it until I read the contest organized on steem for betterlife.


Though if you go straight to the steemworld you will be able to access it, but in other to have a full access you will have to sign into you steemworld accounts and you can do so by clicking on the sign in button located at the far right Conner of your screen.

• Enter your steem user name and your private posting keys to sign into the accounts.

---

• When signed in, Click on Authorized app.

---

The Authorized app gives you a full detailed about the number of users that have permission to use your accounts. The name given to this is called The Authority Role.

The screenshot shown above shows the number of user that have access to your accounts and the role they play.
As you can see we have only one user and the role of this user is to Post, which means he has the permission to post on my accounts.

---

• You as a user and the controller of the accounts, you can either choose to remove or add a user to your authorized role of you want.

• All you need to do is to click on the Grant Permission to additional app, input the user’s name you will like to grant the permission to, and then enter your private Active Key to grant the permission.

---

• You can also choose to remove user by the clicking on the remove sign, you will be given a prompt on whether you really want to remove the user or not, Click on Yes and enter your private Active key to remove the user.

---

Let's Take a Look at Other Features
We also Have the Accounts Feature which shows a list of names of Authorized app holders.
As show in the screenshot below.

---

The screenshot above shows the Authorized users, In this case the authorized users means that the number of people you've granted permission to access your accounts either by posting or by using it for other purpose.

---

• We also have the Last accounts action.
  In this case, this shows that last activity on the accounts or say the last time you accessed your accounts.

---

Conclusion

I think the having a knowledge on how the Authorized app works is a very good idea since it helps you know the number of people that have access to your accounts.

Special Thanks Goes to
