There’s some good news for Google Pixel users! Your favorite cameras just got a little bit better with the rollout of Pixel Camera Services update to version 1.3. While the update may seem light on features at first glance, it does ship with one key addition for 3rd-party apps that rely on the Pixel Camera, and bug fixes that promise to elevate your mobile photography experience.
The highlight of the update is the implementation of capture processing progress callbacks in 3rd-party apps. This new feature provides users with real-time feedback on the progress of image processing, offering a more transparent and interactive shooting experience. Now, users can track the status of their photos as they undergo processing, ensuring smoother and more responsive camera performance.
In addition to the progress callbacks, version 1.3 includes a series of bug fixes and performance improvements. Although the official changelog doesn’t go into details, such enhancements are often designed to address any existing issues and elevate general stability and responsiveness. Google is committed to delivering a seamless and reliable camera experience for Pixel users, and these updates further underscore that commitment. Below is the full changelog.
The new Pixel Camera Services update is available to download on the Google Play Store, so be sure to grab it to get the new feature and improvements. As always, it is recommended to keep software up to date to enjoy the latest enhancements and ensure a top-notch photography experience.
