Overview
A camera element lets you display a preview using your iOS camera and capture photos and videos. Camera elements can be layered with other objects to create popular UI designs.
Element Properties
Mode
Set the camera’s mode to photo or video.
Lens
Set the camera lens as ultra-wide, wide, telephoto, or front:
Ultra Wide: Uses the back-facing lens with a wider field of view (i.e. 0.5 lens).
Wide: Uses the default, back-facing lens.
Telephoto: Uses the back-facing lens with high-quality zoom capabilities.
Front: Uses the front-facing lens.
Digital Zoom
Set the camera's default zoom from 1-8x.
Content Mode
Set how the camera's preview is positioned within the element:
Aspect Fill: The preview will scale up to fill the element’s bounds, preserving the aspect ratio but potentially cropping the preview.
Aspect Fit: The preview will scale down to fill the element’s bounds, preserving the aspect ratio but potentially leaving some of the element's area unfilled.
Quality
Set the quality of the recording to 720p (low), 1080p (medium), or 4k (high). (for video mode only)
FPS
Set the frames per second to 12, 24, or 30 fps. (for video mode only)
Show Preview
Choose to display the camera feed. When off, users can take photos or videos, but cannot see a preview of what's being captured.
Pinch to Zoom
Choose if users can pinch the camera's preview to zoom in and out, like the iOS Camera app.
