Once Privacy Indicator is installed, you will be able to see a small access dot indicating realtime camera or microphone usage on your device 🚥
Privacy Indicator also offers a wide range of customization options to customize the indicator dot and personalize it the way you want ⚙️
How to use ? Using the Privacy Indicator is absolutely simple. All you need to do is to turn on the indicator switch to activate the Privacy Indicator accessibility service, and you're done. Once the indicator dot shows up on your screen, you can now further customize it the way you want.
Once the indicator is turned on and everything is configured, you can close the app and let it do the rest 🎉

Q. What exactly does Privacy Indicator do for me ? Privacy Indicator helps protect your privacy by instantly letting you know whenever an app is using the camera or microphone on your device.
Q. Do I really need Privacy Indicator on my device ? Absolutely yes. Once you grant camera or microphone usage permission to an app, you never know exactly how and when that app is using that permission. While most of the apps use these permissions when required, but there can always be some apps on your device that use it without even letting you know. And this can be a real privacy threat for everyone.
Q. I see the indicator dot when I open the Privacy Indicator app. Is Privacy Indicator also using my camera or microphone ? That's a good question. But no, Privacy Indicator never uses the Camera or Mic on your device. It only shows up there to help you customise the indicator dot in real-time.

★★★★★
Really very good. I recommend not having the 'bleep' 'bloops' if you intend on having a speech assistant available at your beck and call as the 'bleep'...'bloop' (on...off) of the microphone is surprisingly often. Super easy to turn that setting off.
★★★★★
Very user friendly app👌. This app does exactly what I needed, great job👍👍.
★★★★★
Keep up d good work.benefits of ios on android never feels bad🤣 but whenever I open d app .the camera indicator turns on .why so??
★★★★★
Privacy Indicator is exactly the app I was looking for. It has been designed keeping every device's need in mind, hence providing great customizability options for the access indicators.
★★☆☆☆
Bought paid version. Does almost nothing. Dot appears for an instant when you use the mic or camera. History always blank for background use or any detection, no info on what app uses mic or camera. Useless.
★★☆☆☆
I have another app that lets me know when someone has accessed location, camera and microphone, and it tells who and at what time and if they are still accessing. This app has not done anything. No notifications, no information. Even now the other app has indicated that someone was accessing my location, this app did nothing.
