How to use the gesture control feature when taking a self-portrait photo in the Camera app?
As the example, we'll use this feature to easily take selfies by using the following steps:
- Open the Camera app. By default, it uses the rear camera.
- Tap to switch the camera from the rear to the front.
- Face the front camera lens. Make sure your face is not too close with the camera and gets enough lighting so that it can easily be detected.
- Hold your hand out with your palm facing the front camera lens. When the camera recognises your palm, your phone will automatically take a photo after a few seconds.
Tips: you can use the delay before the camera takes your photo to correct your pose so you can get a better self-portrait photo.
