Hi everyone,

Is there any chance to change camera settings on Android while a video call? I’d like to turn on/off a flash and take a photo.

According to Android Developers Docs, an application should only have one Camera object active at a time for a particular hardware camera. Is it possible to get access to the Camera object instance that is created by react-native-webrtc?

Thanks.

As far as i’m aware that functionality hasn’t been implemented as of yet.
