Camera Access

TUTORIALS

Today, there are many use cases where our users might need to access their device's camera or image gallery. This can be either to select an existing image or to take a new image or video to use within our application.

Adding the ability to take photos with the device's camera in Ionic apps is possible using the Capacitor Camera API. Also, if you are still using Cordova, you can use the Camera Ionic Native plugin.

The following tutorials explain how to use the Camera Plugin in Ionic apps to access the image gallery.
