Self Timer (w/ Sound)
What is it ?
A simple app you can use to take a photo of yourself (with others 
) or to reduce the camera shake. The self-timer mode can be set from 0s to 1 min.
The countdown is started by pressing the camera button or by making some noise 
The pictures are saved on the SD Card and available in the Media Gallery.
Please be aware that the Lite version takes low resolution pictures (in fact the lowest resolution of the camera of your device; most of the time < 1 mpix). You should buy the full version to enjoy best quality pictures !
How do i use it ?
- From the application launcher of your android device, start the "Self Timer w/Sound" activity by pressing its icon :
- The application immediately starts the camera of your device. First, use the progress bar to adjust the timer (from 0s to 1 min). Then press the "Camera" button (located at the bottom right corner of the application) to immediately start the countdown. The timer should play some "piano" notes during the last three seconds. The timer then fires the shutter and the picture is taken. At this time, the picture should be available through the Media Gallery of your android device (the picture has been saved in a "selftimer" directory on the external storage of your device (the SD Card for example)) :
- Using the "Phone/Sound" Button (at the left of the "Camera" button), you activate the noise detection mode. First press the button... the countdown is delayed... Then make some noise or clap your hands (you may have to yell ) to start the countdown.
- Please be aware of some more details about the application :
- The Lite version takes low resolution pictures (using the lowest resolution offered by the camera of your device),
- The Full version must be used for best quality pictures as the timer automatically uses the highest resolution offered by the camera of your device,
- The timer will use the autofocus if your device has it,
- The timer will use the flash-auto mode if your device has it.
