Create camera app using react native (Expo)

Is it possible to make a camera app using Expo so that the camera will be opened right after I start the app. The solution I found needs to tap a button 'start camera' after the app is started. But I want my app to open camera without pressing any buttons (right like the native camera app on iOS)

react native ios emulator - how do I test camera function on computer, without using a phone?

I implemented code using a React Native package accessing camera to scan documents. I don't have a physical phone. How do I test the functionality using just my ios emulator on computer?
For iOS it's impossible to test the camera. For Android you can configure the emulator to do that.
Its possible to configure your emulator in Android to test the camera:
fire up Android Studio
open the AVD Manager screen
click on the pencil icon next to your chosen emulator device
show advanced settings
change camera (front and/or back) to "Webcam0"
You will need to cold restart your emulator for the changes to take effect.

Recent apps icon in React-native

I changed the default app icon and it appears fine in the app drawer, but on Android 8.0's recent apps the icon is still the default one.
Also when I try to uninstall the app, the Alert windows that opens contains the dafault react-native icon.
I tried looking on other posts and found this comment, but I already set those and even created a mipmap-ldpi (36x36) icon, but it still remains the same.
How can I change these icons?
I'm using React-native 0.59.1
For Android 8.0 and Above Adaptive Launcher Icon are used and for Versions below Android 8.0 we use Legacy Launcher Icon
You can try try to update icons using Image Asset Studio -
To start Image Asset Studio, select Android in the Project Window. Right click on the res folder and select New > Image Asset. You have now opened Image Asset Studio. You can now create an Adaptive Launcher Icon or Legacy Only Launcher Icon as per your requirement by selecting Icon Type.
You can refer to this link for more information.
Hope it works !
