How to enable lightness in Camera

[melmc1403]

Hey!
Just wondering how to enable this lightness setting within the camera? I want it there but my friend can't find it on her S10+. Any suggestions?

Thanks
Mel

I tried that on my friend's phone and it doesn't appear??

It appears on my s10+ when I click pretty much anywhere in the picture area.

It's more of a press than a tap. Hold your finger on the screen for a moment, and it will appear. I guarantee that it does work! Sometimes, you can adjust the exposure without doing this. Just press your finger on a dark object/area, and the exposure will change. Your picture will be brighter. The converse is true if your image is overexposed. Just press your finger on a lighter area.

Yeah me too - just can't seem to get it to show up on my friend's S10+ x

I just press my screen once and it comes up but can't seem to get it to show on my friend's S10+ x

Does your friend's phone have the latest OS and camera installed? Same version as yours?

Yeah everything is exactly the same. However when I press on her screen within the camera app, a square focus indicator comes on but on mine it's circular? Does that have anything to do with it?

Have you tried clearing the cache/data from the camera app?

The focus indicator shape depends on what you have focus set to - average, spot, center, etc.
