Access camera from lock screen without entering code / fingerprint

Using /e/OS Settings

Hey there,

when I double tap the power button I get a “droout drout” sound, but the camera does not open. When I enter the code afterwards, I am in my camera.

So how can I access the camera from the lock screen without entering the code? Where can I set this to be allowed?

Thanks a lot! :slight_smile:

I found the solution myself: I had set “Opencamera” as standard camera app. And OC does not have the setting “Show above lock screen”. I removed the “open by default” with the “clear all defaults” and now I could chosse e/cam as the standard camera for double tap. Found solution here:
