If your Chromebook is in tablet mode, press the volume up or volume down button to take a picture.
Along with movement, you’ll also want to test the microphone by speaking.
If the camera and microphone work with this app, go to Chrome to see if you can use your camera through web apps. If you have a secondary camera connected via USB or another internal camera, click the Camera Switch icon (it’s on the left side of your screen and looks like two curved arrows around a circle). To see the photos and videos you’ve taken, click the thumbnail of your most recent capture. It’s in the bottom right corner of your screen.
If you want to check your microphone, go to “chrome://settings/content/microphone” and make sure “Sites can ask to use your microphone” is selected. You can revert these changes if you want to prevent Chrome from using your camera; go back to the camera settings and make sure “Block” is selected.

If your camera still doesn’t work, reset your Chromebook. Be aware that you’ll lose all the data and settings stored on your Chromebook. Press Ctrl + Alt + Shift + R and select Restart. In the box that appears, choose Powerwash and your Chromebook will reset to factory settings. If this doesn’t work to fix your camera, you’ll need to contact your Chromebook’s manufacturer.
