I used to block my S22 ultra's camera and microphone always while not in use with 3rd party applications which whitelist system face recognition and call recording.But now samsung or google started blocking those useful applications for no reason.Please let the buyer run its own device with its own choice

Those apps might have violated playstore's policy which affected user's privacy or security. Anyways android has option of disabling microphone and camera permissions for apps, you don't need third party apps to do that.

If you still want to install that app you can download from
