Hmmm. Might be time to put it in "Island" - or at least only give it specific photo access.
Same with WhatsApp. Just have to get used to sharing to the app rather than from the app.
If you have any Zuckerberg products installed on your phone, all of your browsing behavior is being tracked. These apps should never be installed.

That's why I suggested 'island' since it's pretty close to a sandbox for those apps.
As far as iPhone goes, you can make it so it only spies on this specific app.

The method revealed in my comment's link bypasses app permissions in the phone OS.
Ah good point with WhatsApp. I'm going to check those permissions right now (unfortunately I can't afford not using it)
