Abstract
Some embodiments described herein provide an application that includes a scrollable in-line camera for capturing and sharing media content. In some embodiments, the in-line camera is provided in a scrollable view of the application. The scrollable view has three distinct user interface portions, including an in-line camera section, a preview section, and a shared content section. The application's user can use the in-line camera section to capture a photo or a video clip. The preview section is a portion of the UI that allows a user to review a photo or video captured with the in-line camera. The user can also use the preview section to either delete or accept the content. If the user chooses to delete the content, the content is removed from the preview section. If the user chooses to accept the content, the content appears in the content sharing section.
