  In my v-play environment on a laptop an application takes photos properly. But when I install it on Android camera seems to not be available to a program (it has privilleges to use it). What could be a problem here?

  Hi,

  can you open the AndroidManifest.xml file in the android-build directory your shadow build directory (you can find this path in the Projects tab in Qt Creator) and check if the correct permission and feature are set?

  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
  
  <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera" android:required="false" />

  If not, you can add them manually in the manifest file in the android directory of your project directory.

  Does this minimal example also not run for you?

  import Felgo 3.0
  import QtQuick 2.9
  
  App {
    id: app
  
    NavigationStack {
  
      Page {
        
        AppButton {
          anchors.centerIn: parent
          text: "Display CameraPicker"
          onClicked: {
            nativeUtils.displayCameraPicker("test")
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }

  Or are you using a different component to access the camera?

  Cheers,
  Alex

  I’m using Camera object in my app, and it is not working, despite I have added what you proposed.

  But your ‘nativeutils’ works – it opens camera. I what way can I get photo image from ‘nativeutils’ ?

  Hi,

  here is another example that shows how to access the image taken with the camera:

  import Felgo 3.0
  import QtQuick 2.9
  
  App {
    id: app
  
    NavigationStack {
  
      Page {
      
        AppImage {
          id: image
          anchors.fill: parent
          // important to automatically rotate the image taken from the camera
          autoTransform: true
          fillMode: Image.PreserveAspectFit
        }
        
        AppButton {
          anchors.centerIn: parent
          text: "Display CameraPicker"
          onClicked: {
            nativeUtils.displayCameraPicker("test")
          }
        }
        
        Connections {
          target: nativeUtils
          onCameraPickerFinished: {
            if(accepted) image.source = path
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }

  The full documentation of the NativeUtils is here: https://felgo.com/doc/nativeutils/

  Cheers,
