The last one at least wouldn't apply. Only pictures the phone takes would be blocked. Assuming this is some sort of OS/Administrative app, I doubt the vault apps could get around anything preventing the camera service from returning an image without, basically, rooting the phone. Other than that, the facial recognition stuff is a fair point.
Nudity recognition is going to be really hard to detect.
Since these children were using "vault apps" those vault apps would probably start to include bypass techniques.
And this ignores the sexual health stuff that children can validly search for. You don't want to block images of how to check your testicles for cancer, for example. (Although photographs are probably not helpful blocking the images would be counterproductive.)
