App summary
Wrist Camera App lets you control and preview your phone camera remotely from your Samsung Watch or Android Wear OS Smart Watch! (Only works on Bluetooth connection)
To be honest, this app has the least amount of features compared to other apps on the market. That being said, it is by far the easiest to use.
* May not work on Huawei and OnePlus phone due to their aggressive power saving feature.

⚠️ Important Disclaimer for WearOS Play Store: This app only works on watches paired with an Android phone. If you're installing this from Play Store on your watch, you must also install the companion app on your phone.
This app also needs to be whitelisted from the phone Power Saving feature: We need this permission because some phone brands completely killed this app when not in use, rendering this app useless on phones like Nokia, Huawei, OnePlus, and Xiaomi.
