I'm imagining a world where I could fix the white balance to match my fixed shooting lights without having a higher degree in maths. I've imagined that for years now.

Was super excited to see camera to support cameraX! Thanks for the great work

[@yanuarbimantoro5229]

Great plugin, but sadly still had much feature not implemented like camera2 plugin

[@Designguidetv]

it was complicated and didnt work before sometimes, now it works but it still is a lot of code...

[@VinoTinto4ever]

Does flutter still have support? I have heard rumors that Flutter died

[@junveld4830]

Is it only for Android?

[@marvinmoltgen7349]

CameraX is a feature by android, iOS has another api to work with the camera. iOS is supported for a long time, just hasn't received a new update

[@augustomet]

Android only?

[@rudiansyah9577]

yes for now

[@marvinmoltgen7349]

CameraX is a feature inside of and by Android. iOS works and will always work differently. It has other and more importantly less problems, since they only have a handful of new devices per year. iOS is supported by the camera plugin, but received no big api upgrade (because there isn't one)

Проверил связку еще раз, работает.

[@abhayshandle]

what about video support

[@Camille-sq4jz]

It's supported!

[@abhayshandle]

@@Camille-sq4jz we have to use external libraries for that ig? inbuilt would have been better. is it supported now?

[@Camille-sq4jz]

@@abhayshandle No, this is included with the camera plugin!

[@abhayshandle]

@@Camille-sq4jz nah, I'm talking about playing videos, not recording. Is it supported?

[@huertin0315]

Camera taking too long to take a photo. Let's make flash wait for it instead of fixing it and making it faster. 🤔

[@iGhostr]

Yes but if it doesn’t work on iOS then what’s the point of doing it in Flutter?

[@tophe9281]

You might be building a Flutter app only for Android, then it makes perfect sense. Flutter is not ONLY beneficial for cross platform. Also the camera plugin, the latest version (0.11.0) will use this plugin for Android and some other (don't know which) for iOS. So you get the CameraX benefits for Android at least (which is where it's needed since there are sp many different kind of devices there)

[@iGhostr]

@@tophe9281 I see, to be honest in the past I also made app for only Android but that was because our other developer believed in iOS native supermacy (simple CRUD app with some visuals) and didn't allow to use 1 single code base
