Safety overview

Status: Mostly safe

Rakuten Link is legitimate carrier software for messaging, calling, and mobile account functions. Access to contacts, notifications, microphone, camera, and photos can be normal for its communication features, so review those permissions based on how you use the app. Because it handles calls, messages, and account-related information, keep the app updated and use standard account security practices on your device.

Recommendation: Keep Rakuten Link if you use Rakuten Mobile and want its calling, messaging, or account features in one place. If you do not use Rakuten Mobile or no longer rely on the app, you can remove it without affecting unrelated apps, though you will lose its in-app communication and service-management functions.
