I reported this a year or more ago, but it appears nothing has changed.
I have granted no permissions to BBO app on Android and App info says "No permissions allowed".
Nevertheless, the Permission usage monitor of Android just advised me "BridgeBase has been detected using Camera".
Please fix. BBO and/or Google as necessary.

When does this happen? I can't think of why it would happen unless you go to a table/tournament using video chat.

No specific time, just once every few months I get a notification from Android Permission usage monitor that "BridgeBase has been detected using Camera".
In this case I had used the App for a few minutes earlier in the day, to look at History from a tournament (played on PC) the previous day.
It's at least a year since I ever tried using video chat and only from the PC, never with the App.
As mentioned, the App has video permission denied.
I use other video-capable Apps with permission denied and have never received this notification for them.

Permissions the same as previously documented.
In this case, I had used the app on Android only to subscribe to a tournament: subsequently on PC I played the tournament and later logged in again to check history.
