Она греет телефон в жару, расходует заряд, а выключить не невозможно. Если запретить доступ к камере, то приложение просто не дает зайти в калькулятор. Исправте это, пожалуйста ### 1/5 — Buns *2026-07-25, version 8.46.0* istg this thing is so bad. The camera doesn’t fit ANYTHING and for some reason butchers the quality.
