Help with S6 Camera

Hi, my name's Alfie and I have a galaxy s6 which is my primary camera for both photos and videos. My friend and I are doing a school prject in which we have to create a five minute clip reviewing an object. To shoot the b-roll for this clip I have no choice but to use my galaxy s6 and while I was shooting it I was wondering if there was any way to have manual focus control while shooting video. I looked around, downloaded some apps and looked through settings but to may dispair, I found nothing.

So my question is: Is there any way to manually adjust the focus on the galaxy s6's camera while recording video?

Any help is gratefully appreciated, thanks
