Well the question is pretty straightforward, why is Firefox opening my camera on Android? And I know that this is happening because I have the OnePlus 7 Pro and on this phone the camera props up and it's fairly obvious that the camera is being used. So why is this happening and how do I stop this? Thank you and I appreciate any help.

Hi

This is being caused by the website that you are viewing requesting access to your camera and in doing so is triggering the camera to open. We could keep this request hidden, but we think it would be better for you to make an informed choice.

We are working on ways to reduce the frequency of these messages and this will hopefully be in a future update. In the meantime, you can adjust this in the Android application settings.
