A few things worth knowing

What does this camera tool support?

Countdown uses active-page timing and cancels on Stop, hidden tab, camera changes or Reset. The actual captured PNG is previewed before Download becomes available. Resolution is bounded to 1,280 pixels per side and 1,228,800 pixels.

Is camera access automatic?

No. Press Start camera and grant browser permission. Facing direction and resolution are preferences. Denied, unavailable and delayed permission states are handled explicitly; late cancelled streams are stopped.

What happens when I stop or hide the page?

Stop and hidden tabs end camera capture, cancel pending countdowns/sequences and release optional sound. Completed captures remain available in the current page. Reset, workspace switching and page exit discard them and revoke application URLs. Downloaded files remain under your control.
