camera app(s) failed/errored multiple times as i tried to video record two strangers approaching my private property. i downloaded multiple camera apps from f-droid and they all failed as i tried to record. Permissions for microphone, camera, storage were active/on. Either the camera or microphone would glitch on any app.
after about an hour, strangers gone, the default camera app starts working. no uninstall, reinstall, clear cache. i suspect hackers?
what will stop this from happening again? is it possible to ensure smartphone camera apps are secure?
Strangers approach my private property unexpectedly and harass/disturb me. I grab my smart phone (android) and press camera hardware button > video record … and the app instantly errors and fails, multiple times. I wait till the strangers leave, then i install FreeDCam and simple camera from fdroid, both of those apps error as well. Either microphone didnt work or ir crashes completely anytime i open. i don’t believe in coincidence… very strange the camera app failed as strangera approached. the camera app has never done that before, thou9gh i did not use it in important situations. i suspect hacking?
What do i do to ensure my camera does not fail next time? Is it possible to even secure smartphones these days?
