How to get the extra camera modes? - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Someone said there extra camera modes at the Samsung store? How do I get them please.

Please move to questions sorry
U.

While in the camera app, with the back facing camera on, slide your finger from the left to the right to pull up the different camera modes. Then press the + icon at the top of the screen.

or open Samsung App > 3 dots > my apps > all (if you had a Samsung phone before and download the camera filters, it should all be there). Forgot who provided this info but they are in the "Surround Shot" camera thread, so thank them.

app which shows an onscreen camera button

I need to use my mobile (SE x10mp) for taking many photos, and I want to spare the hw camera button.
any suggestions on a FREE app which shows an onscreen camera button, so that I just tap the button and the camera snaps a photo? needs to work with A2.1
TIA
I use Camera ZOOM FX. It has a camera button on the screen. I think it also allows for tapping anywhere on the screen to take a picture. There is also a Uva Silent Widget Camera app that I use that places a shutter button on your home screen and you can take a quick photo using it without having to launch a full application. It comes in handy at times.

one touch camera

I recently switched from Honor 7 to Honor View 10.
On H7 i had configured it that when the phone was off (or on) that i touch the button on the left and the camera went on right away.
very handy if you want to take a quick snap of your cats doing something silly
well, the H10 doesnt have a button on the left . and i went through all the phone settings if you can configure anything for a one touch of another button or a voice command to start the camera right away. but i didnt find anything.
now i have to unlock the phone with fingerprint,face or voice command and then tap on the camera icon. Takes way too long and the situation/funny moment etc passed.
Is there any way to quick start the camera?
Go to camera, open settings by sliding your finger from right to left. Tap the last option called "Ultra Snapshot" and check the first option to open the camera and take a quick snap by double tapping the volume Down button. Take a look at the screen shots below.

Sony screenshot function ruined in Android 11

What just happened? Well it seems Sony (or Google) have managed to make taking a screenshot a lottery when pressing and holding the power button.
Before you would get a nice little screenshot button beside the power button while still being able to view what's on the screen.
Now screen goes black (seriously?) and a screenshot button appears at the top of the phone. Good luck taking a screenshot of a video or something similar, it's pure lottery.
Also before you got a sub menu after the screenshot was taken for a quick delete, edit etc and now Sony have managed to cover up the delete option with a mini picture of what's just been screenshot.
Pretty poor Sony, massive stuff up!
Or is it just me?
Well that's 2 posts I've seen to put me off 11 already . This does sound pretty poor. I use the power button screenshot feature a lot.
Does the Google assistant screenshot option work any better? Have to hold the home soft button and choose Share Screenshot for that one. For some reason pressing the dedicated assistant button doesn't show it!
You have option to go to All Apps View(Running apps pressing square from 3 button navigation) and from there you can take screenshot of that particular app.
It seems it's more and Android 11 issue (they call it a feature) which, for me, is worse than 10.
Yes you can now take a screenshot using the square apps button but that also freezes the screen as soon as you press it making video screenshots hopeless still.
I now have to use AZ screen recorder.
God I hate it when a company "improves" a feature like this.
Good to know about the new screenshot feature using the running apps menu. I guess for taking screenshots of videos then the 3rd party app option is going to be the only choice. Unless they fix the screenshot issue in a future update .
So I got the Android 11 update today and decided to check out the screenshot problem. I now see what happens with the black screen when playing video.
That said, the screenshot does actually still capture the video, as you can see from the photo I uploaded.
I guess it would be nice if the video didn't disappear when doing this but the functionality of taking a shot from the video is there. Not sure if that helps anything?
The little pic does seem to be hiding the old delete option you are right. Unless the delete option has just been removed entirely?

Device with Android OS on which I can open my favorite Camera app straight from Lock Screen, without PIN

I keep losing Photo/Video opportunities on great moments, for two reasons:
My device doesn't let me choose which Camera app to open from Lock Screen's shortcut.
(only the native Camera app, which sucks)
I must type my PIN to be able to even open the native Camera app.
I keep telling myself that my next phone must have a way to be able to open my favorite Camera app straight from the Lock Screen, without having to type my PIN or struggling with the "swipe up" gesture to actually show the keypad (which many times doesn't display on first try). It's just frustrating.
Is there any device that actually does this?
And as a bonus question... why are all native Camera apps now forcing us to "swipe" to move from "Photo" to "Video" mode, which just slows down everything even more? Why can't the "Take Photo" and "Start Recording" buttons be on the SAME screen?
In the lower right corner of the home screen of my phone, there is indeed a launch icon of my native camera app. But I found that it doesn't work at all. I don't know why. :-(
It works for me. I put Open Camera there. However, it requires me to put the PIN.
I can also set up the Volume Down/Up key to open the Camera App, without PIN, but unfortunately that only supports the native Camera app, which sucks.
my phone has this feature when the screen is lock and dimmed black you can press VOL- button 3x and camera would open thou you still need to enter pin to view the capture images
