Absolutely DO NOT nonstop reminder to check apps that have petmission. You provide no option to turn the incessant reminder. WHY? The app also constantly pops up with the overlay notification to allow Camera or not, even without trying to open any app. It also does this when opening an app that is already designated for No Permission. You also incessantly ask if I want your Microphone Blocker. I have it. I don't need to be asked again and again and again and again and again and again. Get it?

I don't think this ap really works as advertised, if you turn off the permission for it to overlay other aps on the screen but still have the camera block ap in blocking mode you can still use the camera as normal, the camera isn't disabled at all, the overlay screen it pops up (if permission is given) just prevents you using the ap that wants to use the camera. Spyware using your camera obviously doesn't show an ap onscreen which will then be overlayed blocking it from taking photos.
