First, open the Settings menu on your Android phone or tablet by swiping down from the top of the screen o open the notification shade. From there, tap the gear icon.

Next, go to the “Privacy” section.

Select “Permission Manager.”

The Permission Manager lists all of the different permissions that apps can access. The ones we’re interested in are “Camera” and “Microphone.” Tap either one to proceed.

Each one will display the apps in four sections: “Allowed All the Time,” “Only While in Use,” “Ask Every Time,” and “Disabled.” To change these permissions, tap one of the apps from the list.

Then, simply select the new permission.
