User Reviews

Users praise Camera Lock for effectively securing front and back cameras against unauthorized access with a simple, clean interface that offers peace of mind. The app is lightweight and easy to use. However, multiple users mention intrusive ads, a lack of advanced features such as auto-lock timeouts and widgets, and some compatibility or usability issues with newer Android versions or multiple user profiles. Occasional unexpected app behavior also dampens user experience. Overall, it is valued for privacy but could improve functionality and reduce ads.

Some confusion or limitations with user modes and shared user profiles affecting camera lock functionality across them.
Compatibility issues mentioned with newer Android versions like Android 11 and Android Nougat plus.
Occasional unintended behavior like the app locking cameras unexpectedly and interfering with flashlight use.

Before I had this, various known and unknown apps were turning on my camera for whatever reasons. No more of that BS. If I can't put a security lock on my camera, I 'll have to switch to Apple. Don't want to, but Google is acting like a dicktator.
