    It's an idea for communication/social networking apps, that have a camera feature built in. It is not available in any app so far, but I'd love to see someone pick it up. Basically…

    Good Points. Maybe something like a Lytro-Focus-slider could be implemented. Front/back and Flash can be adjusted on the panel I the left.

    I'm borrowing from snapchat here which uses a similar concept (tap for pics, hold for video) and tried to cut/avoid additional steps. As for focussing: why must focus and trigger b…

    Thank you for the feedback. I hadn't thought that it could be interpreted that way. The idea is that it tapping and holding for photo/video works anywhere on the screen. I also wou…

    true. I like the ideas behind hangouts (and they have the best emoji). but it is just so painfully slow and unreliable with notifications for me...

    the current implementation leaves room for speculation. especially, since others have pointed out, two checkmarks only show that it has been delivered. the "last online" time means…
