# Bug Report
## Problem
### What is expected to happen?
I expect the camera to always open using the back camera.
### What does actually happen?
It opens upusing the front camera when minimizing the app and opening native
camera app and switching to front camera.
When i come back to my app and open up the camera it uses the front camera
instead of the back.

If i leave the app and open up the camera app and put it on front option now
