How can I take a photo with the volume key?

Take a photo with volume key

Hello, I just bought myself a selfiestick that you plug into your 3,5mm audio jack and press a button to take a picture, but when I press the button i just turn up the volume on my phone, can I change which button that takes photos or is there an app for my Nokia Lumia 535 that can take pictures using the volume button.

I've used my friend's stick and well, there was no way of making it work. Altough i didn't try hard, didn't try at all. I think you can make it work if it supports Bluetooth?

The makers of these selfie sticks do not have them coded right for WP 8 & 8.1. I'm told they will work with W10M, but have not tried.

You could use Intellicam which has a voice trigger to take pictures. https://forums.windowscentral.com/e...ps%2FIntellicam%2F9WZDNCRCWN2F&token=l3NmO1T0
