Cameras that are not in use are covered

If you live in Germany, you can order special removable stickers for your smartphone cameras free of charge from the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth (BMFSFJ). But normal stickers will also do the job. Make sure that you don't stick over the inconspicuous brightness sensor! This causes some smartphones to switch off the display because they think they are in a trouser pocket. If you have problems with stalking or are being followed by ex-partners, you should completely cover your cameras to be on the safe side.
