Capture video in an Apex page running on a phone?

Geert01Dec 6 2021 — edited Dec 6 2021

I have used https://apexplained.wordpress.com/2016/08/29/html5-camera-integration-in-oracle-apex/ to create a page so I can activate the camera on my phone to take a picture (thank you Nick Buytaert ).
This solution uses getUserMedia API that does not work in Internet Explorer nor in Safari ( I have not tested that yet).
Will Apex ever support this video/photo capturing mechanism 'out of the box'?
I know of the existence of an apex plugin (cannot remember the name right now) that does a perfect job, but it is pretty expensive. Does anybody know of a solution that works on all phones/browsers?
Kind regards

Geert
