Please see Bug Report Requirements.

The most important part relating to your post is that NO third party plugins should be submitted - it is the responsibility of the developer to fix those, in this case, Rexxrainbow.

It is not the responsibility of Scirra to fix plugins created by other users.

Closing as we cannot accept bug reports for third-party addons. You should report issues to the addon developer.

Guys, I understand and respect the concern raised but I think there is no feature in construct 2 to contact developer + wanted to make aware that this bug can cause issue in their project. THanks anyways guys.

Send pm to me, the author of that plugin, or left message in this page.

BTW, I tested this plugin with camera only at ipad3, it worked fine in both front and rear camera. I don't have other devices to reproduce that bug.
