Faucet on the camera icon under-- center!-- with heaven emphasize. Now your camera will certainly trigger and also you'll see a sneak peek of the image you're about to take:


To take a picture, faucet on the blue button. To make a (short) video, faucet on the video camera symbol to the right of the button.
