Literally just let's calls interrupt our manage focus state.
Never had a problem receiving a call while in sync
Sync doesnt take full screen control with audio and video so it's quite a bit different
Android's fucked up permissions scheme makes even a flashlight app look like horrible spyware.
I have never once seen a robust permission model be easy to use or explain to folks who don't care.
Do you have a suggested alternative that's going to keep privacy and security advocates happy, while being easier to use?
remove permissions entirely and give every program root access. if it worked for dos it'll work for everyone.
Ah, the kernel level anti cheat approach.
Why not? There's certainly precedent.
Lol that's insane.
If people are going to waste my time with that "never complain about anything unless you can offer a solution" crap I'll waste their time with a similarly stupid answer.
I have a solution - don't harvest my data?
Incomprehensible reply.
Thank you, brainrot achieved. 👍
bites you
But in this case it doesn't apply, and you don't actually need the camera permissions to enable the flashlight and haven't for a very long time.
