Camera on lockscreen

RutgerManger — Thu, 05 Jun 2014 08:27:22 GMT

I often accidently click on that icon on lockscreen when I'm unlocking the phone, and then the camera starts. Please make it possible to remove this icon but keep the fast start on the camera button.

I do not think that is possible by default,if you disable quick launch from camera settings it might work but the button would not trigger the camera.You could look on google play for some apps.

I had the same issue - also other people can pick the phone up and use the camera even though the phone is still locked.
In camera settings, switch off quick launch mode and this gets rid of the lockscreen camera button 🙂
It does stop the physical camera shutter button from launching the camera as well, but I always launch it from a shortcut on the home screen anyway.

I understood the problem wrong, so I edited my comment.

I never use the camera button. A shortcut on the homescreen is much easier for me.
