Best way to take pictures at night

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I have noticed that camera control doesn't have any flash capabilities, but I can use Add Image control which is able to open native phone's camera app with flash. But there is a downside - images are very large. Is that the only way to use flash? Is there away to reduce image size before uploading to SP?

    On a mobile device, if you click your profile icon in PowerApps, a menu will appear and at the bottom there is a option to "Optimize images for upload" 

     

    I believe this is enabled when installing PowerApps now. If it is turned on, images will automatically be resized before upload.
