        \n
      1. Taking Photos or Recording Videos:<\/strong>\n
          \n
        • Use the camera mode<\/strong> to capture a single photo or start a video recording.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

        • Adjusting Camera Settings:<\/strong>\n
            \n

            1. Editing the Captured Content:<\/strong>\n
                \n
