Alot of my friends use Snapchat for messaging but it’s really annoying needing to laggily enable the camera every time the app opens. Anyone know a way to make it think it has the camera on but not actually or something? (if you just revoke the camera permission it stops you from using the app entirely)
Unfortunately, what you are asking can really only be done on a rooted device and, to my knowledge, Snapchat has root detection which will prevent it from working. There are potentially some 3rd party apps you could use, but those run the risk of deactivating your account
I really want to know that for another app for a different permission.
It would be good if we can “trick” an app to think it has a permission and stop bothering us.
I just tried revoking the camera permission on my Snapchat app. There’s a nag to re-enable it on the main screen, but the navbar at the bottom still lets me access my chats and view snaps from friends.
Is it not the same for you? I’m running version 12.38.0.45 on Android 10.
Wow I feel silly now. Looks like my app wasn’t fully updated and in the most recent version they don’t block you from everything when the permissions disabled lol. Thanks!
Username does not check out! :D
Convert your friends over to Signal. Let Snapchat harvest somebody else’s personal data.
Signal also did something that angered its userbase by removing SMS support, so now it’s harder than ever to try to convert people to Signal.
Can’t you just use your normal SMS app?
Do you understand the reasoning for the removal?
