WhatsApp is just backing up the chats so why it's accessing the camera.
Even after I have disabled the camera permission for WhatsApp app.

According to your screenshots, we can't find that WhatsApp was accessing the camera. The last screenshot just means that you have disabled the camera permission for WhatsApp.
Lol, even with cam denied it already has too many sensitive permissions.
I won't allow this app on my device...
Nobody really needs Whatsapp, Instagram & Facebook, IMO, the apps which make their user to the glass human. These apps serve only one purpose, namely to find programmatically out everything - really everything - about you, in order to be able to fill you up with customized advertising. The bad thing is that most of the users of these apps have not understood this, or simply do not care about it.

Right but in the Notification it says it accessing the camera, and also I enabled the Sensors Off in the developers option, so it shouldn't be able to use the camera. So what's the ways by which I can find is WhatsApp accessing or accessed my camera ?

For my Android phone, in Settings - Apps & notifications - Permissions - Permission access history, I can find which apps tried to access some permissions.
Please feel free if you want me to upload some screenshots about the setting options here.

I am using a non-rooted Samsung phone with Android 10, and I am not able to find any Permission access history setting .

Please note that this is the free version of Unlock History. Purchasing the full version supports further development of Unlock History and is truly appreciated.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dhruv.unlockhistorypro
This new app secretly checks and show all successful unlocks, apps used and the duration for which the device was used so you can check if someone else was using the phone, making your android smartphone more secure.
It is also a great tool for parents to monitor the phone usage by the child, or one could spy on their friend's phone as this app works silently.
The feature to set password makes sure that only you can check your device's record.
The complimentary widget not only looks good but also makes it easier to view the last unlock.
Main Features:
- Option to set password.
- Material UI
- Silently checks usage and shows no notifications.
- Automatically starts when the phone boots.
- Older usage data get cleaned up regularly if configured.
- Consumes very less battery.
- Very light weight tracking mechanism.
Mod edit: Broken DL link removed.

Good Idea
But When my Friend can unlock my phone it can Delete history of this app
+
:Suggestion:
Add Option to Set Password for your app (When Opening your app).
Or at least when Deleting History.
:good:
Expect more features in the next update

So why was the app pulled from playstore? And can you share source code?

In Android 5.0, Screen Pinning was added. It can pin apps, great
But it can't pin single photos.
How many times have you tried to show someone one of your photos, only to have them go through your whole album?
Photo Pinner solved that
Simply select a photo in your favourite gallery app, share it to Photo Pinner and press the pin button. Android will take care of the rest - you can even make it go to the lockscreen before unpinning!
Photo Pinner is totally free, free from ads, has a tiny file size and needs no permissions
It also supports basic pinch zoom features, and views in fullscreen

Yes, it's not a backport
Looking forward to this, Quinn!
Is there a way to hide the "help"? I don't need people to know how to exit the pin app. Now that I know, I know.
Otherwise, an app I didn't know I had a use for, but now think will be valuable. Thanks!

Nope, I think you can do it with device admin, but there's no documentation yet

Awesome app..
Need support for animated gif as well..
Hello.
Is there a way for being asked for pin for leaving the photo?
It's too easy is someone knows hot to leave the pinning...
Thanks.
Hy guys,
Story:
So I have been using Phronesis rom for a while now, and I was always bothered by 1 thing...
Whenever an update came from Play store or I was restoring my backed up apps, I was constantly getting popups to check if I want the app to access every permission.
Basically this method will disable this, but you will also lose the option to set permissions for apps.
Annoying popup: (It is asking for camera permission here)

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Method: (It should work on any rom that uses the same application for permissions)
1. Get Titanium backup (or any app that can freeze system apps)
2. Freeze this system app: com.sec.android.app.capabilitymanager
3. Enjoy
Positive effects:
-No annoying popup on installing apps
-Installing any app is faster
Negative effects:
-Can't control app permissions.
Screenshots:
App Ops application: (com.sec.android.app.capabilitymanager)
Apps Ops application in recent apps: (com.sec.android.app.capabilitymanager)
There is what you lose: (Setting > Applications > Application Permissions)
BEFORE
AFTER
I hope you guys will find it useful
For me it was almost a lifechanging discovery
Enjoy ^^

Hi. I'd like to encourage you to download my application, which is called "LED Notification Manager".
Application allows to set own configurations of LED diode for notifications from installed applications. User can set color of LED diode and time of lighting. Please remember that not every color could be supported be your mobile device. "LED Notification Maganer" is available in English and Polish language version.
The application may not work properly on some deivces. In this case let me know here, on private message or send report with the application.
You can download application from Google Play, here is link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.eszpila.lednotificationmanager

Good if it doesn't have internet permission
There won't be internet permission in PRO version in the future. Now I want to improve application, I would like the application to work on variety of devices
There is only one ad in application, because it took me a lot of time and work to create LED Notification Manager.
Good application. It works on my Huawei G620s with Android Kitkat. Other similar applications didn't work on my device. Thank you for app
Thanks for your opinions. There is new version of LED Notification Manager on Google Play. Some bugs was fixed and applications will work now on larger number of devices. Check this out in Google Play - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.eszpila.lednotificationmanager

Recently I have released an improved version of the app. There are some design fixes. Application is also activated automatically after device reboot.

If the app is encrypted with app password, you can't see the notification content.
