I would rate higher, but I have not been able to figure out how to use the blocker on specific apps. I would like to be able to have my camera access blocked, but still allow certain apps to use the camera.

great app! I've used this app for couple years now! 3 Days ago' i scanned for viruses on my android 14' and this camera block app was the culprit.. I no longer use the app? give me 2 days I'll be using it again.

It appears this only blocks the selfie camera but then that block is defeated by using the phone's back button - you are able to take a picture after clicking the back button even though the icon shows blocked. *Edit - still only the selfie camera is blocked. *Edit - in selfie camera when it's showing blocked on its screen, all you have to do is hit the back button and it will defeat the block and selfie camera works. *Edit - why only the selfie camera is blocked? The rear camera works always
