GetDeviceCameraCFrame

Parameters (1)Default
playerPlayerPlayer
Returns (1)
CFrame

Returns a world space CFrame looking at the player's character, such that setting the current camera's CFrame will view that character from the perspective of their device.

This method leverages the device's camera and it only functions on mobile devices. If no information is available, for example the user is not on a mobile device or they don't have their camera turned on, this method returns a CFrame.identity.

See Roblox Connect for a sample implementation of this method.
