- * API for interacting with "application operation" tracking.
+ * AppOps are mappings of [package/uid, op-name] -> [mode]. The list of existing appops is defined
+ * by the system and cannot be amended by apps. Only system apps can change appop-modes.
*
- * <p>This API is not generally intended for third party application developers; most
- * features are only available to system applications.
+ * <p>Beside a mode the system tracks when an op was {@link #noteOp noted}. The tracked data can
+ * only be read by system components.
+ *
+ * <p>Installed apps can usually only listen to changes and events on their own ops. E.g.
+ * {@link AppOpsCollector} allows to get a callback each time an app called {@link #noteOp} or
+ * {@link #startOp} for an op belonging to the app.
