There is a reason why security experts recommend to everyone to never permit any app access to your camera on iOS.

This is probably also the reason why I never would recommend anyone to use android, ever.

The permissions on my Android device (Samsung, it may be different for AOSP) are wonderful. I even get notifications if an app uses unusual permissions in the background, and can easily view permissions by app and apps by permission.
