I have Galaxy A14 5G with Android version 13. I selected Camera Settings, Shooting methods and "Voice commands" is not present. It has "Press volume key to", "Floating shutter button", and "Show palm." I cleared Data and Cache but that did not help.

How can I use voice commands to take a picture with this phone?

You could probably use Bixby to take pictures.

"HI Bixby, take a picture".

Bixby is not installed on this phone. I tried it on other phones in the past and did not like it.

Hi, If you have Bixby Voice or Google Assistant set up, you can take a screenshot with a simple voice command. Say “Hey Bixby, take a picture,” and Bixby will capture the image.

You didn't read my response about Bixby.

As for Google assistant "Say "OK Google, take a picture." Your Camera app will open and take a photo.

That is the wrong way to take a picture.

I want to open the camera app, frame the photo, adjust any settings, steady the camera, and say "capture" like I did with previous versions of Android camera.

My question is specifically about the absence of the very convenient Camera Settings, Shooting methods : "Voice commands"

Did you ever figure out if this was possible on this phone?  This is my biggest issue with it so far over my A50.  I refuse to use the stupid Bixby app or anything.

"Voice commands" is available on my wife's phone A50 with Android version 11 but not my A14 with Android version 13.
