Camera widget - where is it?

dweaver1 — Sat, 03 Oct 2015 13:35:37 GMT

I used the camera widget a lot on my Z3 - great for the quick selection of modes - but on the Z5 I can't find it...

Can you please help?

Long press on home screen, select widget and apps there do you see camera widget?

Thankyou - the link is for the 'timeshift burst module' - which is why I wondered if you had to download the modules individually - but I can only find a few...

It's the 4k video module that I want, but I can't find it...

Have you checked 5th post? the guy said you can customumize apps too.

May be a sony rep can answer why the widget is not included in latest flagship phone OR just for the record you can try software repair with PCC.

I set 'allow installation of apps from unknown sources' - but when it finished it just reported 'not installed' - never mind - thankyou anyway...

I had a doubt that might happen as that was for old android version. Last try i can ask you to do is to download and install from this link and see if it works. Its from my Z1C 5.1.1.
