Affected app version

1.5.0

Affected Android/Custom ROM version

Android 16, GrapheneOS

Affected device model

Pixel10

How did you install the app?

F-Droid / IzzyOnDroid

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Set up the app to be the main camera app
  2. Lock the phone
  3. Open the app from the lock screen
  4. Take a picture.
  5. The picture thumbnail appears next to the capture button. Click it

Expected behavior

The picture should be displayed in full

Actual behavior

The default app for images, or videos respectively, is opened. E.g. Fossify Gallery.
But this is not allowed on the locked phone, so you need to first unlock to view the taken image/video

Screenshots/Screen recordings

The image/video should directly open and be viewable without unlocking.

Stretch: All images/videos captured in this app session, should be viewable, allowing to swipe through them.

Additional information

Making Fossify Camera available from lock screen apparently doesn't always work: #52

On my Emulator and on my non-Samsung phone it works like this:

  1. Install the application
  2. Start camera from lock screen.
  3. This will now not open a camera but instead ask to unlock. Because it will show you the app selector, with the stock camera app and Fossify Camera up for selection
  4. Select Fossify Camera and "Always"
  5. From now on, the Fossify camera will open directly
