Control access to hardware features on iPod touch
Before apps use the camera or microphone on your iPod touch, they’re required to request your permission and explain why they’re asking. For example, a social networking app may ask to use your camera so that you can take and upload pictures to that app. Apps are similarly required to request your permission to use various other hardware features, including Bluetooth connectivity, motion and fitness sensors, and devices on your local network.
You can review which apps have requested access to these hardware features, and you can change their access at your discretion.
Review or change access to the camera, microphone, and other hardware features
Go to Settings > Privacy.
Tap a hardware feature, such as Camera, Bluetooth, Local Network, or Microphone.
The list shows the apps that requested access. You can turn access on or off for any app on the list.
Note: An orange indicator appears at the top of the screen whenever an app uses the microphone (without the camera). Whenever an app uses the camera (including when the camera and microphone are used together), a green indicator appears. Also, a message appears at the top of Control Center to inform you when an app has recently used either.
