Power 3 camera location

[Barred Owl]

I have a Power 3 and would like to have the camera send photos directly to my SD card instead of internal memory. Can anyone help me set this up? This phone has Stock Android and there is no location selection in the camera settings.

Hi. Is the card recognised on the device.
I don't know what a Power 3 is or what Android version you are on.

So you're sure it's not in the overflow / hamburger settings when you open the camera app.

If so you could try a different camera app such as the very good Open Camera.

Stock Google camera app :

Actually maybe Open Camera cannot save to SD Card directly. I couldn't find the Setting on my Open Camera app.

From the homescreen of the device, open Settings, scroll to Storage, then tap on Save location.

Every device is a bit different, so that is a general guideline.

That will make the default save location the SD card, so double check the settings in your other apps that download.

Thanks, but see the link to their FAQs. I can name a folder but it doesn't say Internal or SD Card storage like on my stock camera app.
I was sure I had Open Camera saving to SD Card and the regular app to the phone, bur it must be the other way around. I never look at my photos anyway
