Outfolder, where is it - add option to set? #7

I don't know where the app puts the pictures it takes. Probably nowhere because a search all over the phone returned with 0 results. After taking a picture a short messages appears at the bottom of the screen:

Screenshot_CameraAlign_20230717-162841

Please explain, where it puts the pictures.

Or could you please add a menu-option to set the outputfolder?

In newer versions of Android the photos should be stored in the "Pictures/CameraX-Image" folder on your device (see screenshot below). In older versions the path and file name may be less obvious but the photos can still be located. One option is to look in a file explorer under "Recent" files, the photos usually show up there.

I made some changes to show the full path on the device and the file name instead of the uri in the pop-up message after the photo is taken. I also increased the size of the pop-up to make sure the full path and name is visible.

Hopefully this explains where to find the pictures. I'm going to close this issue based on the latest release to show the path and file name. If this new release doesn't answer your question please let me know what version of Android and device you have and I can try to help locate them. I'd like to avoid adding a menu option for the output folder until I can resolve the other permission issues causing app crashes.
