Android privacy settings for camera and photos

As an added privacy measure, Android requires that users grant apps permission to access photos / camera on their device (i.e., Camera, Photo gallery). When you install Jack'd for the first time and attempt to upload a profile photo or send an photo in chat, you will be prompted to grant this permission to Jack'd to access to your photos and videos and / or your camera.

If Don't Allow is tapped, you will not be able to select a photo from your library (either when attempting to upload a profile photo or sending photos and videos in chat) or take photos and videos from your camera.

Privacy settings can be updated to allow Jack'd access to your photos and / or camera at any time following the steps provided below.

 

Camera

  1. From your home screen, navigate to Android Settings > Apps.
  2. Locate Jack'd in the list.
  3. Select Permissions.
  4. Select Camera and then Allow.
  5. Restart Jack'd.
  6. Jack'd should now be able to access photos on your device.
