I apologize for the delay. The front camera support took more than I anticipated and I got busy with work and life. Basic support is there but it's incomplete.
It's in front_camera branch in git but I will not release it now (it shows an error upon startup but works). I need a while to finish that but I will continue working on other features.

One thing I miss in about any camera application is the option to save your own presets.
My DSLR has this option and lets me quickly recall settings by selecting C1, C2 or C3 on my dial.

It would be nice if we could save some (3 for example) custom settings and these settings could then be quickly accessed by pressing a numbered or colored button on the left of the screen.

How could this be implemented?
- User sets the camera settings
- User presses one of the preset buttons for 2 seconds to save the settings
- then the user can press a preset button to quickly recall the settings behind that button.

one could then save for example the following presets:
- normal mode with flash
- normal mode without flash
- night mode
Start up time is a bit of an issue and I know. I gradually refactor and optimize here and there but i am still slower than native camera app (which is always running BTW).

I would like to have presets but the viewfinder is already cluttered IMHO and I really don't want to *** something more. I will try to think of something but of course ideas are more than welcomed
