I don't use WhatsApp anymore but I do remember a nifty feature where you can swipe right from the contact list to the camera. What was interesting is you can gradually swipe and the camera seemed always on so you can see the preview viewfinder displaying live feed while swiping.

I imagine for that to work it needed my camera to always be permitted by WhatsApp, and now with Android's latest version where it shows what's using your live mic or camera, FB didn't bother updating the above feature.

Just my hypothesis!
