SquareCamera

Description

Android module that takes a square photo using the native Android Camera APIs. The new Camera2 APIs from the L release is not used because support has to go back to SDK version 14 for my own requirement.

Features

• Tap to focus
• Two fingers zooming
• Front & Back camera
• Flash mode (Saved when the user exits)
• Supports both portrait & landscape
• Runtime permission is supported for saving/viewing photos

SDK Support

Support from SDK version 14 onwards
