Planet Computers, makers of the Gemini PDA, offer a kit to add a camera to the "front"/lid of the device.

Does this camera work with SFOS?

Currently does not work with default camera app for me, but does work with MiracuCam from Jolla Store which is not ideal solution. Crazily it worked once after initial installation with earlier version of Sailfish OS, but failed upon second opening of camera app or after reboot. Please note I am using Dual boot Sailfish/Android and it works perfectly in Android.

Thank you.

It seems weid what you describe, that it worked a single time with the default app. What is failing, can you ot switch the cameras, or does it not open at all, not shoot?

Default camera just shoots "selfies", there is no icon on screen to change to rear camera.
