Android's "standard camera app"

"…it was first provided as a standalone app, later being integrated into Android's standard camera app."

I cannot find anywhere the existence of a stock Android camera app. When I do, it is usually referring to the Google Camera (renamed Pixel Camera as of last month) or the UI maker's version. Because all the vendors have different camera apps there does not exist a "standard camera app" and Samsung, one of the bigger vendors, does not seem to implement it but has a competing product called Bixby Vision. What's more is that Pixel Camera is only available on Google Pixel phones. This article shows a mock-up of what stock Android looks like and includes a camera but also says it does not have Google Play Store, yet includes it in the picture. The only open-source cameras seem to be Open Camera and even Cyanogen has its own camera app. Any reference to the camera function on the Android website seems to be for implementing the function as part of Android app development or as a system app alongside system apps like email but Android Mail doesn't seem to exist. For now I think that's enough to assume it's for Pixel phones only. I know this was added years ago but do you remember where you got this information, @UKER? – Mullafacation {◌͜◌ talk} 02:08, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

I have no idea what you're going for here. The Google Camera was the stock Android camera. I can tell you that much. --uKER (talk) 18:26, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

If that's what you meant then my edits should be fine, thanks! All I was trying to work out was whether Android comes with a camera app or there is one that is used the most but seen as we're not using that wording anymore and Google Camera is what you were referring to so it's not a problem. --– Mullafacation {◌͜◌ talk} 18:53, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

Typos

looks like the later text has a bunch of German "ist" and grammatical problems. 92.236.82.132 (talk) 20:19, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
