User Reviews

Users appreciate that the app effectively blocks camera and microphone access on many apps, offers easy setup, and works well on multiple devices without heating issues. However, complaints focus on intrusive ads without a paid removal option, inconsistent blocking performance where the camera sometimes remains accessible despite the block, power consumption concerns, and occasional app instability after reboot. Some UI and feature improvements have been noted, but overall consistent functionality remains a challenge for several users.
