I am building an application that will need to know these answers:

Does the device have a front facing camera?

Does the device have a microphone?

Is there a bool value I can use to check these? I won’t need to use them right yet, but, I am planning on using them in the future soon, so, I am trying to incorporate these.

    You can use IsCameraTypeSupported:

    if(PhotoCamera.IsCameraTypeSupported(CameraType.FrontFacing))
   Debug.WriteLine("Front Facing camera exists");

    There are currently two enumerations for CameraType (Primary and FrontFacing)

    All phones have a microphone, so you don’t need to check for that.
