**Camera** in the menu lists the apps in **System Settings → Privacy & Security → Camera**. Apps that are allowed have a checkmark.

Click an allowed app to take its access away. Devbar runs `tccutil reset Camera <bundle id>`, so the app asks again the next time it wants the camera. Allow that prompt to turn it back on.

macOS has no public way for another app to grant camera access, so Devbar can only take it away. An app you've denied opens Camera settings when you click it.

## Apps that ask next time

A reset removes the app from macOS's list. Devbar remembers every app it has seen and keeps showing it as **Asks next time**. Clicking it opens the app.

## Full Disk Access

macOS keeps camera decisions in a protected database, so Devbar needs Full Disk Access to read them. Until you grant it, the Camera submenu links to that setting. Devbar opens the database read-only and never writes to it.
