Description

Show full descriptionShow less

Camera & Microphone Blocker is a free application that blocks both internal and external attempts to open your device’s camera and/or microphone. ShieldApps’ Camera and Microphone Blocker provides a user-friendly solution, designed to easily block and protect your phone from unwanted privacy intrusion and abuse. The simple interface is easy to use and allows the user to choose settings. Android devices’ users can block either-or camera and microphone. The home screen button will display the current status, either Blocked or Unblocked.

While the Camera & Microphone Blocker is on, when a user hits the camera button, he or she will get a message that Camera is disabled by a security policy. A similar message is received when a user tries to turn on the voice recorder. However, ordinary phone call conversations will not be affected

Camera & Microphone Blocker Features

Camera Blocker - Blocks general access to the camera from both installed apps and any external attempts.
Microphone Blocker – Effectively Blocks microphone usage, limiting it to phone calls and blocking out all external attempts as well.

This app uses the Device Administrator permission
