I'd love to know if there is any way for an app to be recording the microphone/camera input when the screen is locked, granted proper permissions given by the user. The question is valid for both Android and iOS (both native).
Cheers!

In android if you have the camera permission and nobody else is using the camera it doesn't matter if the phone is locked or not. – Gabe Sechan Sep 02 '16 at 19:07

Make sure not to peak into others privacy. – user6657161 Sep 02 '16 at 19:09

Thanks for the answers Shobhakar and Gabe! Shobhakar after some more search, seems like iOS permits such a thing (see [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9918761/avaudiorecorder-doesnt-record-while-screen-is-locked), [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12477958/avaudiorecorder-stops-when-lock-button-is-pressed?noredirect=1&lq=1) and [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3848172/ios-multitasking-for-an-audio-recording-application?noredirect=1&lq=1) - not sure if still relevant). user6657161 agreed, there are lots of responsabilities for such a power. – Philippe Hebert Sep 02 '16 at 19:32
