An on-capture shutter effect is supported, providing visual, haptic, and audio feedback the moment a document is captured. This flashes the screen black, triggers haptic feedback, and plays a sound bite. The configurable options are listed below:

Effect Default Setting Description
Screen Flash True The screen will flash black once when a document is captured.
Haptic Feedback False The user will feel a sense of touch known as haptic feedback when a document is captured.
Sound False The default iOS sound bite will be played when a document is captured.

This feature can be customised during the initial configuration of DocumentSDK, using the configureShutter method within DocumentScannerConfig. Below is an example:

struct ContentView: View {
@StateObject var documentSDK: DocumentSDK
init() {
var config = DocumentScannerConfig(autoCaptureToggleConfig: .showDelayed(), documentSide: .front)
config.configureShutter(screenFlash: true, hapticFeedback: true, sound: true)
_documentSDK = StateObject(wrappedValue: DocumentSDK(documentScannerConfig: config))
}
...
}
