Focusing Your Moto E Camera: Tips And Tricks

The Moto E series has a range of camera features that can be accessed by tapping the camera app icon on the Home screen or the Apps screen. The camera can also be launched by pressing the power button twice or by using a voice command. The camera app interface includes settings for photo size, flash, HDR, Google Lens, panorama mode, photo mode, portrait mode, face beauty filter, shutter sound, anti-flicker, and front/rear camera switch. To take photos, users can tap the shutter button, tap anywhere on the screen, or press the volume down button. The camera also has a burst shot mode and a portrait mode. The camera settings can be customised by tapping the More settings option.

Launch the camera app in three ways: tap the camera app icon, press the power button twice, or use a voice command

There are three ways to launch the camera app on the Moto E6:

Method 1: Tap or swipe the camera app icon

You can tap the Camera app icon on the Home screen or the Apps screen (app drawer) to launch the camera, just like using other apps. On the lock screen, you need to swipe the camera app icon (found on the bottom right corner) to the centre of the screen to launch the camera without unlocking the phone.

Method 2: Press the power button twice

On the Moto E6, you can also use the power button to quickly launch the camera app from any screen (lock screen, home screen) without closing the currently active app. Regardless of what you are doing, you can quickly press the power button twice to launch the camera app. Motorola named this feature "Jump to camera", which is available in almost all Moto phones. By default, Jump to camera is enabled, but you can disable or re-enable it in Settings — System — Gestures — Jump to camera.

Method 3: Use voice command to launch Moto E6 camera

You can also use Google Assistant to launch the camera app on Moto E6. By default, Google Assistant is enabled. You can access it by using the Hotword “Hey Google”, or holding the Home button for a few seconds. Once Google Assistant is launched, you can use voice commands, including “take a photo” or “open camera app”, to launch the camera app. You can also combine “Hey Google” with “take a photo” in one voice command.

Use the front/rear camera switch to toggle between the front and rear cameras

To toggle between the front and rear cameras on your Moto E, simply tap the front/rear camera switch. This will allow you to switch between the two cameras.

The Moto E has two different camera apps: the Moto Camera app and the Moto E6 Plus camera app. The Moto E6 Plus camera app is very user-friendly and clean, with all the camera modes and frequently used features placed on the main interface.

The Moto E6 camera can be launched in several ways:

• Tap or swipe the camera app icon
• Press the power button twice
• Use a voice command to launch the camera

Tap the shutter button to take a photo

To take a photo, simply tap the shutter button. This is the button that will appear on the camera app interface.

The shutter button is always available, and you can tap it to take photos at any time.

Adjust the camera settings, including the flash, photo size, and shutter sound

The Moto E6 camera app has a simple and user-friendly interface. The camera settings can be accessed by tapping the Settings icon on the viewfinder.

For videos, the size settings can be 1080p, 720p, or full screen.

Shutter Sound

The shutter sound can be turned on or off.
