How to access a mobile's camera from a anvil web app?

Any idea about how to access mobile camera to take photos/videos using mobile browser?

you’ll want to take advantage of the file uploader and change the file_types property to something like…
image/*|video/*;capture=camera

I haven’t tested this… so report back how it works out…

Speechrecognition in anvil webapp

Fun fact: Because the HTML file input is how the FileUploader component works, you can achieve what @robert suggests without writing any HTML or JS, by setting the file_types property to "audio/*;capture=microphone"! However, for what @goldiesahni wants, I would definitely suggest using the browser’s speech recognition APIs via Javascript - that’s what they’re there for
