| 2024-12-24 |  | | i uninstalled and reinstalled the app only to encounter this recurring issue whereby the app keeps shutting off even though auto start is on which should allow it to run in the background yet it keeps shutting off. |
| 2024-08-21 |  | | Had this app for quite awhile Works well. However, when I upgraded to a new phone, I could not install it on my new phone at a cost of $18.90 for a year. They haven't responded to me, nor is it showing up in subscriptions, I WANT MY MONEY BACK! |
| 2024-08-13 |  | | Yes, it seems to be no longer available on our new phones either. Especially when we purchased and instantly had to move our profiles over to new phones due to insurance purposes. And we're just now finding out the plans are no longer valid on the new phones. Even for several other user accounts we're finding in the past google purchases, there not matching up to the micro qnd camera guard pro verions. Nor the refresh restore subscription. We never can find the licensekey w the purchase of pro |
| 2024-06-28 |  | | Hello support, I have sent a couple of emails to you in regards to my subscription no longer working on my phone after an update to Android 14. I realize you have had a tragic loss of one of your developers who passed away and my condolences to you all. I would like to know if there is an update to make the app work or how to go about getting a refund for my paid subscription please. I want to make sure that I'm not charged for a renewal until there's a fix. It's an excellent app! |
| 2024-05-13 |  | | Was great when it worked but it needs an update to work on new phones. I know a lot is going on behind the scenes, yet it's time for an update or at least a reply because our subscriptions are no longer valid when it doesn't work on the new phones so we aren't getting what we paid for. Thanks for anyone finding this helpful and any responses /resolutions from camera blocker &guard. |
| 2024-04-13 |  | | I LOVE this app it's actually the best camera blocker app on here! However, when I switched to a new phone, it's no longer compatible with the new Android 10.. can you guys make it compatible with the android 10.. I can't stand all the others! Fortunately, the mic block works on it. I'm just missing the camera! 📷 |
| 2024-04-01 |  | | Update...It's been 3 months since the app quit on all of our phones. And seeing as how this app hasn't been updated since 2020, do you think you can get off your butts and get this updated for us? I have a yearly subscription that's now useless. >This was a 5 star app until it stopped working. My phone updated and now it doesn't work, at all. The app doesn't work on 10+ versions? What? I did notice that the app itself hasn't been updated since 10/2020 so perhaps it's time for you to get to work. |
| 2023-12-06 |  | | EDIT: Just updated & now won't work. Notification says "Camera Guard is not supported anymore on Android 10+. Please contact support." Contact support for what? You are clearly already aware of the issue, & the way the notification is worded sounds like it's not going to be fixed. It's more like a statement to inform the point at which the app ceases functioning. PLEASE don't keep responding saying to contact support. Either address our ?'s or don't, but we don't need bs homework assignments. |
| 2022-04-04 |  | | This app used to work on all the android devices without any flaw. But on android 11 the Nokia x100 it doesn't work anymore and that under the developers options there lies an option to disable all the sensory functions such as the camera and microphone. But I was disappointed that this app doesn't work anymore because I was faithful and loved this app. The option to block the sensors under the developer options is that the blocking of the sensors tend to not work consistently day and night. |
| 2022-03-24 |  | | This app uses 15 different ads!! Uninstalled and NO THANKS!!! THATS PLAIN RIDICULOUS! Say "Hey Google" and it comes up waitingnfor the next command. This Microphone is enabled. If it were, Voice commands would NOT be able to be blocked. The.app does NOT work as advertised. No point in keeping an app claiming yo do something that doesn't. Makes one think about what this app really does in the background besides listen to you! No thanks! UNINSTALLED!! |
