    Question Switch between video cameras?

    When recording a video on a phone with front and rear facing cameras, can the user switch between cameras at will in the same recording session?

    I don't think so, Actually it would be easier to switch between front and rear cameras(like the iPhone), Moreover having a dedicated shutter button on the side of the phone would make it so much easier to use.

    I never even thought of that feature. It would be amazing to be able to do that. That was a good idea.

    Thanks. Hopefully, the manufacturers will implement it someday.

    I would love to see a small button on the main screen that switches between cameras. Sometimes when you want to take a picture, a few extra seconds can make all the difference. I would also like to see a small button to switch between still/video. There's no reason for that one to be buried in the settings either. Yes, you can just open the camcorder app instead but you shouldn't need two different apps to do the same thing.

    All android phones I used had those in the stock camera software. Third party apps often have those too don't they?
