PRIVORO M0007 SafeCase Security Device for Galaxy S21
Section 1: About SafeCase
SafeCase is a first-of-its-kind security device for mobile devices that enables unique data protections and high-security services alongside your smartphone. Integrated within SafeCase are protections against audio and video surveillance resulting from the remote hijacking of your smartphone’s cameras and microphones. Audio capture is prevented via randomized audio masking for each of your smartphone’s microphones, while image/video capture is prevented via a physical barrier that blocks the cameras.
SAFECASE PARTS AND ACCESSORIES
SafeCase ships with a USB-A to USB-C charging cable which, when connected to a
power source, charges both SafeCase and Galaxy (Figure 1).

Section 3: Managing audio/video surveillance protections
When SafeCase is powered on, audio/video surveillance protections are automatically engaged; this is the default mode, known as protected mode. In addition to protected mode, there are two additional modes: unprotected mode (used when capturing images/audio and placing/receiving phone/video calls) and audio passthrough mode (for using your voice assistant or recording audio memos with video protections still engaged).
PROTECTED MODE: FOR FULL PROTECTION
Protected mode is the default audio/video surveillance protection mode. In this state:
- The audio masking and camera blocking features are engaged.
- The corner indicator LEDs pulse green every 10 seconds.
It is normal to hear a soft white noise coming from SafeCase when in protected mode, a result of the audio masking adapting to the noise level in the environment surrounding SafeCase/Galaxy. While in protected mode, most phone features including apps, videos, emails, music and text messages can still be accessed.
UNPROTECTED MODE: FOR PHONE/VIDEO CALLS AND AUDIO/IMAGE CAPTURE
- Temporarily changing to unprotected mode is necessary for capturing images/audio and placing/receiving phone/video calls. In this state:
- The audio masking and camera blocking features are disengaged.
- The corner indicator LEDs pulse red every three seconds.
Entering unprotected mode must take place before capturing images/audio; otherwise, the recorded photos, videos and audio will be indecipherable. Similarly, entering unprotected mode must take place before placing/receiving a phone/video call; otherwise, the other participant(s) in the call will not be able to understand what you’re saying.
USE THE TOUCH BAR To change to unprotected mode, slide your finger from
right to left (looking at the front side) across the touch bar, toward the
unlocked icon (Figure 21).
As the camera shutter opens, an ascending audio tone will play and the corner
indicator LEDs will blink red five times.
To change back to protected mode after the call/capture, swipe left on the
touch bar, toward the locked icon (Figure 22).
As the camera shutter closes, a descending audio tone will play and the
corner indicator LEDs will blink green five times.
[Graphic: Swiping left] [Graphic: Swiping right]
Figure 21: Swipe left on the touch bar
Figure 22: Swipe right on the touch bar
AUDIO PASSTHROUGH MODE: FOR BIXBY/GOOGLE ASSISTANT AND AUDIO MEMOS
Temporarily changing to audio passthrough mode allows you to leave camera/video protections engaged while using Bixby/Google Assistant (or another voice assistant) or recording audio memos. In this state:
- The audio masking feature is disengaged while the camera blocking feature remains engaged.
- The corner indicator LEDs pulse red every three seconds.
USE THE PUSH-TO-TALK BUTTON To change to audio passthrough mode, press and hold the push-to-talk button (Figure 23). When first pressed, the corner indicator LEDs will blink red five times.
When you have completed your voice action, release the button (and change back to protected mode). The corner indicator LEDs will blink green five times.
[Graphic: Pressing push-to-talk button] Figure 23: Press and hold the push-to- talk button
Section 4: Using the Privoro app
The Privoro app serves two critical functions: it provides a user interface
for SafeCase and it creates a communications channel between SafeCase and
cloud. For SafeCase to maintain its cloud connection, the Privoro app must be
running in the background and Bluetooth must remain turned on.
From the home (My SafeCase) screen of the app, you can quickly check your
connection status and battery level (Figure 24).

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Certification Information
This device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the exposure limits for Radio Frequency (RF) energy
set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government.
These FCC RF exposure limits are derived from the recommendations of two
expert organizations: the National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations were developed by scientific and
engineering experts drawn from industry, government, and academia after
extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to the biological
effects of RF energy.
The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile devices employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a
measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human body expressed in
units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC SAR limit incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give additional protection to the public and
to account for any variations in measurements. For more information about SAR,
