    If your app touches the camera and mic, it will show up on that screen that it does so. “Using the API” (which is just how the OS works) doesn’t prevent it from appearing on that screen, especially when you’re doing so for the purpose of putting video and audio in posts.

      If your app touches the camera and mic, it will show up on that screen that it does so.

      Showing up on that screen is no substitute for what is actually needed:

      • Individual control (an easy and obvious way to allow or deny each thing separately)
      • Minimal access (a way to create a sound file without giving Facebook access to an open mic)
      • Visibility (a clear indication by the OS when Facebook is capturing or has captured data)
