FAQ/Notes:
1. Swipe up or down to switch cameras.
2. High battery consumption?
• After you finish using the app so that it closes completely and no longer consumes battery and stops using the phone's camera, you should close the app using the "Back" button (bottom on the Galaxy Watch), not the "Home" one (top on Galaxy Watch) which will allow the app to continue running but in the background.
3. Connection issue?
• Tap "Settings / Permissions" inside the Camera One app on the phone and follow the instructions.
• Try to uninstall the Camera One app from your phone, install it again, and grant all the permissions the app asks you to. And you should allow everything, not just some of the requested ones, in order for the app to work correctly; and do not change the default app settings, until you check.

Try Premium version for free during the trial period and Buy it later (inside the 'Camera One' app on your phone) when you check out all the functionality and are completely satisfied. If you have any issues, email me at camera.shu@gmail.com and/or use Free version with limited functionality.

I had to rate the app a 5 not only because it works great, as it makes taking photos and videos a lot easier, but I had a great experience with the developer. I had a problem because of my watch not having a bexel it couldn't change zoom and flash options through the watch. I contacted the developer and that same day a response was received and work on the problem started. In only 10 days the fix update came through and now even that works great. Thank you!

Truly amazing app. Connected easily to my Galaxy S8. Lets you see your phone's front or back camera from the Galaxy watch and take pictures or videos. I installed on the watch first and it automatically took my phone to the play store to install on the phone. The free version works fine although you can pay for better picture quality and more features with the Pro version.

When tethered to camera, the only preview is on the watch. The phone screen just shows the open app. This is inconvenient as I cannot set up to see if everything is in view since my watch is a circle and I cannot see the edges. But, now the darn update does not let me just tap the watch, it wants it on my arm and registers my arm movements and keeps stopping the video. Freaking annoying. I am a teacher and am trying to make distance learning videos. This app is a total battery hog.

Hello. To see not cropped image on the watch screen - Long tap on the screen center. To see preview on the phone - turn on in the app settings - Auto start live view on the phone, and keep phone screen turned on. To turn off wrist movement actions - Long tap on the icon which have wrist badge on it.
