GCam app for Android review by AndroidFreeware
Use the Google Camera on your Android. The Google Camera is one of the best camera applications that you can download for Android. The default camera application on Google Pixel smartphones is also quite good, but the developers have managed to adapt it to other Android devices so that anyone can enjoy its features. And they do so through GCam - BSG Google Camera Port, one of the most popular mods.
Use the Google camera port on your Android phone
This version of the Google camera works on many Android devices and, in particular, on those that have a better image processing algorithm, such as those from Google Pixel, Motorola, Samsung, OnePlus, and Xiaomi. However, there are some that are not compatible with this camera, so you may not be able to install it on your cell phone. With similar features like the LMC8.4 GCam by Hasli the BSG port, has been updated more frequently.
The image processing algorithm of GCam is so different from the rest that other developers have created a port or mod of it, which works on almost all other Android phones.
If you need to have the basic Camera2Api without Play Services, please use the Gcam Services Provider
If you are lucky enough to have a compatible smartphone, you will have to activate a couple of options to make it work properly. For example, you will have to activate the HDR+ mode, and if you want to take pictures in portrait mode, you will have to download the Night Sight option.
About config files:
Different phones need different settings. Config files allow users to quickly import (load) and export settings. If GCam doesn't work well on your phone, try one of these configs created by the community. (See how to load config files.) If more than one config is available, try the first one. If you're not happy, try the second one (and so on). There's no need to test all files.
Some GCam versions support import/export of .xml files, allowing users to quickly load the best settings for their phone. Config files are stored inside a folder, which needs to be created manually using a file manager or automatically by saving your config
