My personal app is almost done, which is to press on the input field, make a photo with the camera and upload it to the external php server. The last part works fine. I just can't get it to work how I want it to work. When I press on the input field in the webview (external source) i'm getting the menu called "Image Chooser" with the options: Camera & Documents. I want to get the Camera directly when pressing on the input field.
This is my external html page which gets loaded by webview:
<form id="uploadimage" action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" style="display: none;" id="upload_file" name="upload_file" accept="image/*" capture="camera" />
<input type="submit" name='submit_image' id="clickme" value="Upload Image"/>
</form>
This is my MainActivity.java file:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity{
WebView webView;
private static final String TAG = MainActivity.class.getSimpleName();
private String mCM;
private ValueCallback mUM;
private ValueCallback<Uri[]> mUMA;

//Check if response is positive
if(resultCode== Activity.RESULT_OK){
if(requestCode == FCR){
if(null == mUMA){
return;
}
if(intent == null || intent.getData() == null){
//Capture Photo if no image available
if(mCM != null){

Replace this line:
Intent chooserIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CHOOSER);
For this:
Intent chooserIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
