Can you please suggest some ways.

You can use following search with REST command to list all the apps present in the current splunk instance(where the dashboard is created).

| REST /services/apps/local splunk_server=local | table label

Include this search in your dashboard.

For getting list of apps to which the current user has permission, you can use following:

| REST /services/apps/local splunk_server=local |search [ | rest /services/authentication/current-context | table username | rename username as eai:acl.perms.write] | table label

Any app where write permission is given to Everyone will not listed here. The reason for this is for Everyone, splunk uses "*" which can be escaped in a search string. To get list of apps to which the current user has explicit write permission, use above. For explicit read, changed eai:acl.perms.write to eai:acl.perms.read.
