Could have added simple notification alert on the notification panel rather than two ugly dots.

Lack of customisation. Works well though! --- Edit 1: I'm missing a way to reposition and resize the dots per pixel. --- Edit 2: Wow awesome, thanks!

While I get the fact that ads are important and I support them but still I'd suggest that the ad banner should be placed below the 'access logs' option and not above the 'vibrate on use' button. Also, the 'send feedback' and 'drop rating' button should be integrated into one small button and placed at the top right corner. Dark mode not working. I'm on stock android 10.

Good apps deserve 5 star rating. As of now I can make the app constantly work in background by changing a few settings but by doing so, I do think it consumes a lot of battery. Also in addition to voice and camera notification, if possible a location usage notification would be a good addition (so that's up for suggestion).

App is crashing way frequently and when i keep the vibration indicator off it still vibrates

Works as expected. One thing that keeps me from rating 5 stars is that I'd want it to be more customizable, such as changing the dots' colors, sizes, and their position on the screen.

About this app

Once you've allowed third-party apps the CAMERA or MICROPHONE permission did you know that they can silently use them in the background?

or

Do you feel envious about the new iOS 14's privacy feature that shows a dot indicator whenever CAMERA or MICROPHONE is accessed?

Safe Dots, adds the same iOS 14 style indicators (few pixels light up as a dot) to the top right (default) corner of your screen whenever any third-party app or service uses your phone's camera or microphone.

Safe Dots will be visible even on your lock screen. Configuring the App is as simple as enabling the Safe Dots Accessibility Service (Toggle switch in the App > (More) Downloaded Services/Installed Services > Dot > Enable).

By default, the App is configured to show iOS 14 style coloured access dots - green for camera access, orange for microphone access. The App itself does not request for the camera or microphone access so, don't worry!.

The app displays Safe Dots whenever the phone's camera or microphone is engaged by a third-party App.

Maintain an Access Log, which can be accessed from the App's main settings screen. The Access Log shows when the camera/microphone was accessed, which App was in the foreground at the time of access initiation and how long did the access last.
