Is WhatsApp Spying on You Through Your Camera and Microphone?

Many of us have the bad habit of not reading the terms and conditions when we install apps. Many apps, in fact, reveal from the start what information or tools they will access on your device. For example, in the case of WhatsApp, the app requires access to your camera and microphone so that it can properly perform certain functions, such as making calls or video calls, sending audio, taking photos, and more. However, this authorization should only occur when the app is being used. However, some users continue to wonder if WhatsApp is using the phone’s camera or microphone even when the app is not in use. For this reason, we have compiled some tricks with which you can find out if these tools are being used without your permission and how to limit the use of the microphone and camera only when the app is in use.
