One of the best features of Kospet Optimus 2 is its camera.
Sometime ago I learned from this video of @SmartWatch_Ticks about an app named InstaCamera which unfortunately is not in the Play Store.
The main advantage of this app is that it takes a picture as soon as you open the app and then it automatically quits. This app is ideal for taking a photo almost immediately after you see something interesting without fiddling with controls and then continue with whatever you were doing. Additionally, if you assign the opening of InstaCamera to a button using an app like Button Mapper then taking a picture becomes so easy and fast!
However, there was a problem when I used it from my watch. If the rotatable sensor of the camera module is looking towards the outside world and not myself, all the pictures are upside down. As a result, I had to manually rotate 180 degrees all the pictures which is tedious and time wasting. Moreover, InstaCamera does not geotag the pictures. These two issues are resolved using a small app that I created and you can download it from here. After opening the app you have about 2 secs to frame the picture.
The app was made using the amazing Tasker app and the Tasker App Factory app.
The app is a combination of three different Tasker tasks:
-
EXIFdecToDMS - it converts the current longitude and latitude from decimal number to degrees minutes and seconds (adapted from here).
-
EXIFsaveGeoTag - it saves the current position in the EXIF photo metadata (adapted from here).
-
InstantRotGeoPicture - it takes a picture, then it rotates it 180 degrees and finally the picture is geotagged.
You can download and edit these three tasks from here.
Finally I created a version of this app which takes discretely a picture, meaning that you can not see a preview of it on the screen. You can download it from here.
Enjoy taking pictures!
