I can post instructions later for anyone who wants to know how, but I figured out how to use the #AuroraStore to revert the #GoogleCamera / #PixelCamera app to the version before the horrendously dumb UI redesign.
It's wonderful to have my old camera app back. So much more convenient.
I'm a big proponent of FOSS, but there's just too many great tricks the proprietary app does, like image stacking (nighttime mode) and a lot of stabilization options that don't appear in the FOSS cameras. It's Google's bad for not exposing those advanced options to the open APIs, but I have to work with what I got.
It stinks, but I do run it with networking disabled as a compensating control.
I might give Open Camera a try though, just to compare. Some things I can live without.
Sometimes the #LongExposure feature on the #PixelCamera is just spot on. It would be much harder to take with traditional cameras, probably needing a tripod and a ND filter. #ComputationalPhotography at work.
