App sucks. It doesn't work at all. The reviews are bogus. It says another app is using microphone. No its not. I have no other apps. I've downloaded other mic.apps and they worked. The other apps ive used were tested and deleted one by one before I went with this app. I went with this app because of the ratings but I see that this apps ratings are bogus friends of the developer. This app does NOT work. UNINSTALLED

It is a fine app, but it doesn't seem to work with the latest devices (it won't function over other applications and needs an update to work with the newest devices). In older devices, it is great. Hope that an update will be developed soon.

Great UI but I don't think it works. I had it activated so that my mic should've been unable to pick up my physical conversation with my dad around storage solutions and the next day I have ads for storage solutions. So it doesn't work. I don't know what it blocks actually. Another example I have: I was using a tuning app to tune my guitar and it blocked sound from the guitar. So what does and doesn't it block?

App operates well. Hopefully when inbound and outbound calls are made, the app enables the mic automatically. 1st test of video record with default camera app on Samsung J2 failed with mic blocked. Possible improvement there in the latter regard. Keep up the great work. 4 exception conditions for blocked mic 1) Inbound calls (Phone app) 2) Outbound calls (Phone app) 3) Video recording (Camera app) 4) Hey Google when pressing mic Hope this is helpful and have a splendid day.

this app company knocks it out of the ballpark for top-notch anti-spyware products. I have both the camera blocker and microphone blocker. No worries about anyone listening or watching. get it. worth the price.

IT WORKS, it works X). To test this if android u tap on microphone on Google at the top of home screen and speak into it when block is off, the result should be obvious. When u turn it on is when the magic happens, it allows u to go into the microphone but it picks nothing up, I LOVE IT 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰, if apple just try to record something with it off and then with it on, the one that u had the block on for should be muted. Edit: if apple record with videos to make results believable.

TikTok can bypass the block. Random drug rep first time in my office mentions random supplement co that I hvave never heard of, one minute after he leaves an ad for this supplement co shows up on my phone ...chance of coincidence 1 bazillion to one.

Automatic blocking doesn't work when in screen lock. Also after the 2 hours period when using the free version. Minimum setting for automatic blocking is 5 minutes, supposed to be immediately after an app is closed. 6$ each (micro and camera) is too much. I would suggest a 5$ bundle for both.

I use this free app more than three years in two different galaxy smartphones ok sometimes work properly sometimes not. The thing with the last update is that it malfunctions the alarm clock. Tested it in safe mode and with the blocker on / off and it works when blocker is off. Please fix this xx

Nonsense all together. Your services are intermittently disrupted if not purchased. I once wrote; [Good but superimposes camera and Mic icon on the home screen. Not user friendly on this case. It should only popup when someone is trying to use the microphone. Review your development. The app is good please.]

I am retired IT Security, and I just downloaded this after reformatting my Android phone. The Microphone Blocker and Camera Blocker so far are so much smoother than other applications I have tested. As well as the information they gave me about how many Applications had access to my camera and microphone, even I was not aware of how unnecessarily sneaky most apps are. Thus far very impressed with the free version, I really appreciate this app!

Does not work on Android 12. Paid for the full version and it stopped working when Andriod 11 was released. I emailed the the developers and they replied stating there is nothing they can do, it's an issue with the way that the new android versions handle the mic. I kept using it because you could get it to finally work after about 3 tries to enable it, not that bad. After android 12 was released, no luck at all at all. Emailed the developers, no response. Uninstalled it today.

I think both apps are working fine, although I couldn't know that for sure. There is simply no real way I could think of to test each apps feature when enabling both "Microphone Block" or the "Camera Block" apps. This reason alone is why I didn't give them a perfect rating, just couldn't justify giving both apps a five star rating when I don't even know if each is actually working like the description dictates.

I tried several times to get this app to function properly. Even after I have set the automatic timer to off, it seems to restart the microphone block method after I selected a whitelisted app from my notification panel. Time after time, I go back to my recordings and nothing is there. I have to manual turn the app is off prior to starting separate recording app for my classes. Why does your widget or whitelist function is faulty, especially if have my recording app is running in the background?

This app is a must have. Whether you "need" privacy or not, you should assert your right to be secure on the phone or in your own home. Seems to be updated regularly. I like this & would definitely buy it were I able to answer an incoming call without first having to move aside the call notification and disabling the blocker, also can't get a macro to work for the phone for unblocking outgoing calls automatically.

It works, better than others I've tried, but not all of the time, on Samsung note 8. In order to work, the app needs to actually stay open. If I do close all apps, the mic starts listening again. It's not like a service that works in the background. I've also been experiencing issues with YouTube playing sound in the ear speaker rather than the phone loudspeaker when the app is active, so I need to stop the app to be able to hear the videos' sound. App is also shown as high power consumer.

Really good app, but not perfect. It would be great if I were able to select how long to turn off the blocker, to select which apps are able to use mic and or when...such as only when I manually push microphone button preferably. And one last minor but laughable thing.. All the Danger/Risks I had was this app using the microphone. Lol. Otherwise, I believe the app does what it says it will do. And I do like it, but I especially want to turn it off for a while without needing to uninstall.
