I am trying to detect when a picture is taken, as a trigger (to also make a picture of the photographer)
Tasker has a trigger for the Hardware Camera button, but my phone (Galaxy Nexus) has only software buttons.
Any ideas? I was thinking of using the trigger Action -> File modified, and then point to a file that Android edits when making a picture (like a log file, or a list of pictures).
This says no: Android: BroadcastReceiver intent to Detect Camera Photo Taken?
And here’s a workaround:
broadcast receiver won't receive camera event
use a file observer, instead of a
BroadcastReciever
