How to install gcam on any android

I’ve heard that gcam is just better than all the stock apps on android phones. I have MIUI stock camera and I hate it, at least on my phone, it feels like “laggy” and just doesn’t work well.

As it is not on the play store (at least in Spain, where I live) is ther any way to install it? Maybe something like a port to other android devices as I thinks the gcam app only works on Pixel Phones.

Last of all, no, I don’t want to go install the pixel experience custom rom as I already have a lot of things in my phone and don’t want to lose my things. Though I will definitely if I ever get a new phone.

I’d better than other apps on Pixels because it utilizes the hardware correctly. Its unlikely to be better than what your phone came with, if you want a camera with crazy options, like if your really into good pics, look at open camera.

That mindset started because some custom ROMs came with home grown garbage camera apps.

Well, I’ve actually installed it it is DEFINITELY WAY BETTER than stock. Better color processing, better shadows and overall quality is just amazing. I thi k it’s due to this image processing called HDR and AWB.

Definitely was worth it.

Your stock cam didn’t support HDR?

Sasori323 OP ,

Yes it does. But gcam’s photos are still so much better. I have no idea why

Not going to go through the talk of why one mod over another depending on phone because the answer is, it depends, on a lot of variables.
