camera and microphone questions

[T]

Hi All,

Two questions on the camera and microphone:

1) is there a way to ask Android for a list of everything
that has permissions to either or both the camera and
microphone ?

2) is there a global way to disable ALL access/permissions
to both the camera and the microphone?

Many thanks,
-T

Sure. The path to the settings is on a Pixel 7 (German GUI):

Settings - Data Protection&Security - Data Protection. There you will
find settings and global switches.

You have there global switches for the camera, the microphone and some more.

BTW: Open "Settings" and enter "Permission Manager" should also work
with other starters than the one from Google.

1. PMX

2. Permission Manager
<https://github.com/YourStreet/android-permission-manager>
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.yourstreet.permissionmanager>
(I have this installed but I don't see an APK there anymore.)

4. ADB
adb shell pm grant <sample.package.id> android.permission.<PERMISSION_NAME>
adb shell pm revoke <sample.package.id> android.permission.<PERMISSION_NAME>

For example:
C:\> adb shell pm list permissions | FindStr facebook
This should list all permissions granted for that particular app.

C:\> adb shell pm revoke com.facebook.appmanager android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
This should revoke the stated permissions from that app.

C:\> adb shell pm grant com.facebook.appmanager android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
This should grant the stated permissions to that app.
