I installed this app 2 years ago and was very happy with it and when locked will not let me access any camara on my phone however, 3 days ago I installed snap chat and guess what! Even with this app locked I am able to take pictures with snap chat no problem so what the hell!?! How long has this been going on? Not cool.
