About NoCam Camera Blocker APK
Table Of Contents
Description
Trustworthy app for those who want to be able to simply block/unblock the built-in camera(s) across the whole system for all apps.No permissions required accept Device Administrator, which is mandatory for changing system settings. But no fear, this app does nothing but toggling android’s camera device policy using the standard devicePolicyManager.setCameraDisabled method.

Recommended usage:
- Turn blocking on. This will block your camera outlasting reboots, updates and other changes. You must disable this to uninstall the app.
- When you want to make photos/videos, turn blocking off temporarily. An ongoing notification will remind you about this open privacy risk (this functionality must be enabled!)
- Then turn blocking on again and protect yourself from spying eyes!
Info:
While the camera app is open, no other app can use the camera, because it's already used by the camera app.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
