Reviews for Camera Blocker: Anti Spy Guard

perhaps pro is better but 8 can only give the trial 3 stars as it turns itself off when it's most critical for new when I'm asleep.

Edit: Sorry, I spoke to soon. Just realized I'm on Pro trial. Free version does not block camera from 8pm to 10pm. Original: I came from another app that used to allow me to block/unblock camera from notification, but the dev removed that feature. Luckily I found this app that works the same, if not better. The interface is also simple yet plenty of customization options. It also doesn't require camera access, only device admin privilege to specifically disable cameras.

it works except for between 8 and 10 pm. They want you buy the pro version or whatever. That sucks but I understand. I'm not buying it today but maybe later.

There are annoying warnings for apps that don't have camera access (or "ask each time" option), and even for aps that are not on camera blocker's list.

I purchased the pro version of the app but noticed some issues. At times, it gets stuck and causes other apps to stop working, forcing me to uninstall and reinstall them..

I can change the setting in my phone for free without paying for it so I give this app a one star.

awesome,let's you block all apps access to mic and cameras individually,perfect for spy apps or Google family or smartTv connections as they can be used to spy too

works great! but right now I'm dealing with an issue that caused all of my subscription is to be canceled!?!

far too many ads and restrictions, like when you open the app you have to let it count down. not worth the time

Is hard to tell which app wants to use the camera, every app I open wants to use it including this app... the only thing I noticed that doesn’t it's the GPS app.

Puts an announcement at the bottom quarter of the screen every few minutes to tell you the camera is blocked. Unnecessary and annoying. It didn't used to do this. Had to uninstall. I would re-install if they fixed this. I don't need to be told something is being blocked. Just block it. Occupying my screen is just malware.

this app isn't efficient, it doesn't stay on always. I wanted to see if it only blocks the camera app or other apps which uses the camera for eg. snapchat turns out that the camera block wasn't working and temporarily stays on. The creators should do something about it

I like it. I really do. But one thing irks me. I can't ever find it. It takes me forever to notice the app icon because it's not shaped like a camera. It's a badge with a tiny camera icon and that's hard to notice amongst other apps. I scroll past it everytime wondering where it is only to find it 2 minutes later. Please, would you make an app icon that's recognizable and more...bold so we'll find it easier? Thanks.

Pop up ads with loud audio...are you kidding??? No thanks!!! Over priced app. Has potential but has apparently been designed to make a lot of money rather than provide a great app. Ads are very aggressive and loud. Constant incessant reminders. Blocking the actual app for 2 hours in the evening to force subscriptions? This is just horrible. If you back up and stop being so greedy then you'll probably have a lot more subscriptions because this could be a good app. But it's not currently.

1st week, thought it was great. No ads. Then the app started turning itself off between 8-10 PM and would not let me turn it back on. Next morning, it began giving me scare tactics that 81 apps may be spying on me, and to prevent that, I had to buy the "pro" version. Tried to Uninstall the app and could not, 3 attempts. Finally had to go into settings on my android and force stop the app. Then I was able to Uninstall it. STAY AWAY from this app!

This functions as advertised. It is very good at blocking the camera at all times. However, the app has poor integration with the times you want to use your camera. If you have a video call in Facebook or Whatsapp, if you want to take a picture or video, you must disable the app first. It is definitely cumbersome for these tasks. I would request integration become more fluid for these tasks. Yes, I want my camera blocked from intruders, but I might decide to use the camera again someday.

Doesn't do what it used to. It had a widget that would automatically open your phone for 10 min, or whatever you set it to. It doesn't do any of that anymore. Now it's just continually triggers spam commercials. They got rid of the widget, it only triggers commercials. There are other options out now, especially since they did away with the best feature. I had the paid version for a while, but it functioned completely differently, the free version was a better app. Not anymore.

A very good and simple app. Works as described, it requires admin privileges, but this is expected. All you have to do is tap block and your good to go. It prevents all apps the permissions to access your camera, take pictures, and upload them online. You know it's working as intended when you try to access your camera and you get an error or retry screen. You can easily enable or disable it by tapping "unblock" or "block". Simple is best.

Excellent app. I can turn it off at will but have it on the rest of the time. I installed it because my android phone was hacked. They, real humans, were watching, messing with emails, and nearly wrecked me. I had to install a microphone-blocking app, too, because of them. And run a malware, virus, etc. scan. Thank you for your app.

This app is super easy and I love to be able to block people from seeing through my camera just with one touch! When I want to take a photo or do a live video? It's very easy I just press the unblock button. I just found also the microphone blocker which is also a great option (especially since I've been hacked). My hackers better be ready! They're on their tail, almost done! We have their names, & location, they will be prosecuted and the proof keeps gathering!
