| 2024-12-25 |  | | [UPDATE]: APP NO LONGER WORDS BECAUSE IT CRASHES INSTANTLY EACH TIME IT'S ENABLED VIA A TAP ON THE SHIELD!!! CUSTOMER SUPPORT APPEARS TO BE NONEXISTANT AFTER YEARS OF REACHING OUT THEM!! 🤬 (Original) Wonderful App and Service!! It doesn't get better than this!! One of the best, most secure 🔐 and handy Apps available!! |
| 2024-08-02 |  | | first of all thanks for creating this wonderful app. I have been using it for nearly 5 years or more i'm not sure but it's more than 5 years. I have tested many camera blocker apps whenever i change my mobile or for my family and friends but none of them passed my test only your app won every time. Also idk when but your app suddenly disappeared from Google Play Store. Even though I still shared it using file transfer apps then I found rate us option by clicking it I started to share it by link. |
| 2024-07-25 |  | | Updated to Android 14 and now app no longer work. Keep crashing when trying to activate blocking. This app hasn't been updated since 2020. I paid for the pro version and it was working before the update to Android 14. Please fix this app and release a new update. |
| 2024-06-13 |  | | Was a good app when it worked, but It stopped working on my currrent android. It worked so well that perhaps Google didn't like that it was blocking their access, preventing them from taking a peek into your life. From what I understand, there are more than a few questionable characters over at Google. Or it simply needs an update. Either way, doesn't work for me anymore. |
| 2024-04-18 |  | | Hardly ever worked. Might just be due to my phone's newest update, but it just closes when I try to block camera access. (I have the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4, btw. IDK if that'll help devs or not.) Also, it seems to be able to access the block functionality, it prompts me to buy the "pro" version. If it worked, I'd have no issues with that, but this latest update was released on April 1st, 2024. Tried reinstalling and giving full privileges. No dice, just closes on me. |
| 2023-12-10 |  | | Great App, I've been using for many years on several phones and is very happy with it. However, after a recent update for S23 Ultra, it is no longer working (still works on S20 Ultra). Would you fix this bug. I've found other Blocker App, but yours is the best. I hope this can be fixed soon. |
| 2023-06-24 |  | | I do like this app, I feel more secure. The only thing I've got a problem with is that whenever I want to use the camera I can't use it instantly. You have to find this app, open it and then sometimes you have to click through some notifications to switch on your camera. A simple button on your homescreen might make that easier? |
| 2021-10-05 |  | | Straightforward and easy to use, does exactly what it says it does. Les u know when an app is successful in accessing your camera and when it merely attempts to do so and fails, letting you know exactly what level of threat you're under. Paranoid people should get this app |
| 2021-09-08 |  | | Been using this for around a month now and so far I haven't encountered any problems with functionality. Camera won't open while the blocker is active and the flash is still able to work independently, meaning I'm still able to use it as a light source if needs be. Only issue I've had is that the shortcut in my notifications bar keeps disappearing every time I lock the screen, which is somewhat inconvenient. Hopefully this can be fixed in a future update. 4/5★. |
| 2021-03-03 |  | | Used to work great but the latest Android update has glitched it badly. Could not turn it off to access camera when needed, could not get it to uninstall without coming to the Play store. Microphone version has similar issues, all since the update. Hopefully they will update the apps, these are the best ones I've tried, I even purchased the microphone version to support the devs. Currently going to have to uninstall until there's an update. |
