- ak39 7y agoAgreed. Or at least an admin app that lets the user see which APIs are being accessed by which app.
- floatingatoll 7y agoOr there should simply not be background access to certain APIs, such as camera, video, and photo library. Background audio access on iOS presents a bright red indicator on all non-app screens that can neither be hidden nor removed, as it’s baked into the OS. iOS may require a separate permission dialog for “capture video with sound” and “record sound with/out screen on”, I don’t know. I doubt Android bothers to do any of this.
