With Android 6.0, Google introduced a new runtime permission model for sensitive permissions such as external storage, camera, location, and more. This model saw no drastic improvements till Android 9 Pie.But with Android 10, Google finally introduced a special version of runtime permission, allowing users to grant the location permission only while the app was in active use. Android 11 extended the one-time permission model to two more sensitive permissions: camera and microphone. While all of these improvements bring more transparency and give Android users greater control over how apps utilize sensitive permissions, it would be a lot more intuitive if users could see in real-time when a certain app accessed the camera, microphone, location, etc.
Apple’s newly released iOS 14 update has this functionality in the form of privacy indicators. It shows
orange and green indicators in the status bar when an app is accessing your microphone or camera. While Android 12 may add the feature, XDA Recognized Developer jagan2 has taken it upon himself to bring the iOS-style privacy indicators to any smartphone running Android 7.1.2 and above.
