Cannot work on Internet Explorer and FireFox

Mobile phone, Samsung Notes 2 (still using it)

Hi KC,

The feature makes use of GetUserMedia. You can see the support list for that here;
https://caniuse.com/#search=getusermedia

It's not going to work in any IE, but should work in Edge. Also on Samsung Internet version 6.2 or later.
Note though that you will need to serve this from a secure (https) server - it's not going to work from an insecure server.
Also not going to work in a PWA installed on iOS.

Note - you can also take photos on a mobile device using the FileUpload field type - with the file type set to Image. This will allow the user to take a photo at that point to use as the upload.

aside: Thanks for the mention of the compile error in the shipping example - I've updated that for build 11.02

cheers
Bruce
