Android open camera from button

Question

I hope this isn\'t a duplicate question but I am making an app that I want a button to open the camera app (the default android camera separately). How do I got about doing

Answer 1

You can create a camera intent and call it as startActivityForResult(intent).

Intent intent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);

   // start the image capture Intent
startActivityForResult(intent, CAPTURE_IMAGE_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE);
