Enabling the grid
Enabling viewfinder rounding
Advanced mode settings
Save separate settings for each camera lens
Wide range of supported devices.
Hello.
Hopefully, feedback is appreciated.
Searched on Google Play with no results, same on F Droid.
Thanks.
According to ExodusPrivacy on aurora store it has 2 trackers, cashlytic and firebase
Supposedly the version on Github releases doesn’t have the Google libraries.

Still, I would wait until this app is in F-Droid before considering it. It includes some other libraries of unknown source.
Tried it on an older Pixel with GrapheneOS.
Can’t zoom, can’t switch to wide-angle lens. Camera does not balance brightness by the focus point. Otherwise pictures look pretty much the same.
I suppose this was made for specific devices in mind?
It keeps asking me to allow it to connect to the internet. What for?
Most likely Google firebase and crashlytic.
Their russian telegram channel has some opinions.
Besides a chemtrail conspiracy - reference there is a whoule channel for the ru-ukr war. I am unsure if it is in support of the war or not and translating it does not really clarify it (sentiment gets lost easily I guess).
Considering that, some clarification would be nice. Because I don’t think I would trust a software made by russian “patriots” (quote from the channel) in the current geopolitical landscape.
An Android camera having a Russian telegram channel basically puts this on the no list for me, dog.
Like, I barely care to even hear their reasons.
It’s Russian AND Telegram? Does it come with hepatitis too?
Uhm. It is important to remember that people are not the extension of the government they live under.
If it was closed source I would agree but you can check for yourself if the code is good. Even if they are crazy.

No I can not. I am not an android-dev, I am not the best dev out there and I don’t have time to thouroughly go through a big codebase. It would defenetly be possible to hide mallicious code from me, even if I have access to the source-code. For really big projects it is safe to assume other, more knowlegable people have allready audited the code, but for small ones I have to be able to trust the devs.
Telegram is involved with the shadier end of the crypto market, and for a market that’s shady enough as it is without needing a shadier part, it’s pretty damn dark in there.
It isn’t even viable for their uses. They should consider
movingupgrading to Matrix or Signal.
Impressive, it seems like higher quality then google cam, it has potential
