About Aqua Camera Pro
Take photos under the water! Water can't stop you from taking great photos anymore. Aqua Camera Pro is a camera application that enables you to use hardware keys or proximity sensor to take photos and shoot videos. These features are useful, when your device is waterproof, but has not dedicated camera button and you want to take photos and videos underwater. Initially camera has been developed for Sony Xperia Z smartphone, to use underwater, but during development it evolved to full featured camera app, which can be used as normal camera app. Number of supported devices getting more by each new update. The latest version supports all Xperia Z series, including Z Ultra, Z1, Z2, Tablet Z, Tablet Z2, and other manufacturer devices, e.g. Galaxy S4 active or Galaxy S5.
You have ability to use touchscreen buttons also like in other camera apps.
ATTENTION!!! USE YOUR DEVICE UNDERWATER IF ITS WATERPROOFNESS IS GUARANTEED BY MANUFACTURER. TAKE IT UNDERWATER ON YOUR OWN RISK.
The latest update gives you full featured Pro app for free that includes zoom and scene modes.
"A new camera app developed by xda-developer member AGGevorgyan allows you to take pictures on Xperia Z by tapping the proximity sensor. The idea behind this is that it makes it easier to take pictures underwater, given the absence of a dedicated camera button..." (c) xperiablog.net
"Taking pictures underwater is probably something that not many people have attempted. Of course, not only are the physical and hardware limitations preventing people from doing so, expect for a select ‘few’ devices, but physics tells us that capacitive touch screens will have a hard time registering any taps and swipes when under water. A physical camera button may remedy this issue on the Sony Xperia Z, but how about the proximity sensor?
As an answer to a question along similar lines, XDA Forum Member AGGevorgyan has developed an app that allows Xperia Z owners to easily take photos with the proximity sensor. Designed to rid users of the aforementioned problem, Aqua Z Camera will snap up pictures every time you tap the proximity sensor—simple as that. The sensor sensitivity, being the duration you have your finger covering the proximity sensor, can be adjusted within the app. The great thing is that it doesn’t require root access, meaning it’s a viable alternative to the physical camera button mod..."

I have the galaxy s5 with android 6.01 and this app works great! I was taking pictures under water yesterday with app and I had no problem. The way the app is designed the only way to stop the video is to click the volume button. And it does not take pictures when the water hits the screen. You have to touch a button or use the proximity sensor! Please download this if you take underwater pictures! Also check out LIFEPROOF they make some awesome waterproof cases! But this app does crash some times!

Looked for an app and found it. It works great on my S7 Edge. Many features. Only, i'd wish for more than just standard 1080p 30fps, also 60 fps, 1440p maybe and maybe even 4K. Would love that. But, the full HD has done me fine for now so, yeah. The SD card saving does not work? But it's not a real problem for me. Still a great app :)

OK, this is a pretty good app. I have it on my GS7, and it worked fairly well. My complaint, it caps the resolution off at 8mp, not allowing the full 12mp I would like. Other than that, it's OK.

Perfect for Galaxy S7. When using normal camera the water hitting the screen would either take the pics or return you to home screen. All problems solved :)

It takes great photos and videos! Swipe down and hit the camera icon to switch to video and hit the light sensor on the top of the face of your phone to take the picture/video. :)

Went snorkeling several times and videoed what I saw, the app occasionally crashed but the video still existed somewhere on my phone, however I went swimming with sea lions today and despite checking several times that it was running ok, as I got out the tank and pressed stop it crashed and the video is nowhere to be found. A magic moment lost due to this poor app.

Back a few years ago this app was perfect for the whole purpose of what it's used for. Which was to be able to take pictures and video without the water to react with your phone screen so it wouldn't close apps and click on random stuff as you were swimming. Ever since the last few updates it doesn't do that anymore. You guys still missed a very important part in making this app... you forgot the home button.. Water still will manage to touch the home button and close out my camera leaving me with no videos or pictures. So what's the point in keeping this now? I'm uninstalling to find one that works still.
