The Southern Charms Fan Box

Just to spark some conversations and hopefully help someone out:

Feel free to post here or message me with any questions you have about tech related things. Cameras, videos, video editing, social media, audio, snazzy phone tricks, etc. I may not have all of the answers but sometimes its better to ask a nerd than to google things all day. Am I right?!

Hope you all are having a good week...if not..tomorrow is Friday! WOOO!

What's a cool tech tip for phones?

For phones..seems like a lot of people don't know you can use voice control to take photos! Could be beneficial for charms who take photos of themselves.

On Android you say "ok Google, take a picture in 3 seconds (or different number)". If you are using the front facing camera, say "ok Google take a selfie" Look ma! No hands!

I don't have an iPhone but I'm fairly sure I've read you can do the same.

Hope that helps someone!

How cool!
I have an iphone and had to try it. "Siri, Take a picture in 3 seconds" only opens the camera app. I'm gonna mess around with it and see if I can get it to do it.

From what I read this morning, Siri can open the camera but can't actually take the picture. You'll have to find an app to do it. Should be something available!
