Missing Continuous AF with Point of Interest
Using the app I’ve noticed that the continuous AF that I use in Moment - first version - there isn’t in Moment Pro Camera II, I mean: tap on the screen and, if the area on focus on the screen change distance from the object, the focus automatically (and “dinamically”) changes. It’s possible to (re)implement it?

Hey thanks for the feedback.
So this was actually an intentional omission.
Continuous AF with a point of interest is very finicky on iOS. If the system decides that something else is “more important”, especially if it’s near the tapped location, it will often focus on that object instead. This led to a bad experience where tapping the screen appeared to do nothing.
We can open back-up the can of worms if this post gets traction - but as noted we omitted to avoid the finicky nature of AF with point of interest.

Ok Devan, after the post I realised that the continuous AF works on the centre without tapping on the screen (tapping on the screen, otherwise, block the focus at a certain point) and for me it’s ok. Thank you for the consideration and the kind answer.
