About this app

App that indicates whether other apps or services uses your location, camera or microphone. Be aware, after granting any of those permissions to an app they can use features without your knowing or as we call it "spying".
This app will help in that manners

**Location permission**
Use location permission to determine when other apps are using location access to share your current location.
Privacy Dots does not use either share or store your location, instead, permission is just used for detecting whether other apps or services use the location access.

**Accessibility service**
Enabling accessibility service is required to enable privacy monitoring which detects whether the applications have used your hardware such as camera and microphone.
All information received during app active time will stay locally (on your device). Once the app data is removed or uninstalled everything will be removed.

Hi, i have a mistery to solve! I am getting system ui accessing the camera in your app log. I am using pixel 7 pro with the latest patch. When i turn the phone off and while it is shutting down system ui is accessing camera. There is no light to see this because apps will shut down. But it is visible in the log. As your app is being a third party app i am asking myself if this is false positive or real privacy threat! System ui has camera permission but cannot be removed. Please do reply! Thanks

Seems to work pretty great but it seems like the app only detects when apps are actively recording since just opening the camara app on my Xiaomi phone doesn't make the dot pop up only when I hit record... Could be on Xiaomi's side but im not sure seems to work for all other apps though! Small nitpick is the smaller dot icon cannot be used when taping on it says "not yet available" I'll keep using if it keeps getting updates so far pretty impressed!

I just installed the app & I find it very useful. I have a request... Could it be possible to assign the dots notification icon (that appears on the phone screen) a link to open the Access Log? Furthermore, can the notification icon be temporarily turned off automatically by gaining access to the Access Log? (notification icon would only be triggered again if there's an Access breach. I have battery concerns. Phone eats battery quicker than I would like, & 24/7 icon on screen is ANNOYING! THX
