Updated my review - it's perfect now! :) Thank you!! ----------- This is exactly what I have needed for a while now but I need the other camera, the front-facing camera. I was hoping you could swipe up on the preview, and it would switch cameras, but that is not the case. I tried taking your application apart, looking at the code as well to see if I could possibly just swap the chosen camera in the code but was not successful.

Very good app as a preview camera when streaming. If you can add change the background, this will be the best.

This app was ALMOST exactly what I was looking for. A simple and clean video viewer. Unfortunately, it doesn't let you change which camera is being used (back only). If this app is ever updated to let you use a USB cam (like most other apps) I will update to 5 stars.
