How To Enable Camera On Safari Iphone

While browsing the web, I allow websites to access the features of my device only when I deem it right. The latest iOS ecosystem enables Safari to access the iPhone's camera and microphone automatically. Even though I completely trust the stock web browser for iOS, I think it would be better to turn it off and allow it to access them only on the need basis to ensure more security. So, how would you stop Safari from having the auto access to your iOS device mic and camera? Here is how to get it done quickly!
