Cover screen camera not working

[MEV]

I can't get the cover screen camera to work. I'm supposed to double click on power button right? Do I need to set something in the app 1st?

Hi, we suggest you to follow these steps:

You can check out our camera article to learn more about using Quick shot and other features on your Z Flip phone.

From the Cover screen, double press the Side key to open the Camera app.

Swipe left or right to choose PHOTO, VIDEO, or PORTRAIT.

Swipe up or down to zoom out or in. You can also double tap the screen to switch between zoomed out or zoomed in.

To take a photo or capture a video, tap the screen. A short timer will appear, and then your photo or video will be captured. You can also press the Volume key.

Then, unfold your phone and tap the Gallery icon in the bottom right to view your photo or video.

You can adjust the aspect ratio used on the Cover screen as well. While your phone is unfolded, open the Camera app, and then select PHOTO, VIDEO, or PORTRAIT.

Tap the aspect ratio icon at the top of the screen, and then tap your desired option, such as 3:4.

Then, fold your phone and double press the Side key to launch the Camera app. The aspect ratio will transfer to your Quick shots!

Double press doesn't work to get the camera. That's the point of my question

Check the following:

Open Settings -> Advanced features -> Side key

Is Quick launch camera being chosen? Also, did Double press enable?
