Google Camera

In a new community post, Google is reminding Pixel owners of an often-forgotten feature of their cameras, the “Palm Timer.”

With the March 2025 Feature Drop, Google is rolling out Pixel Camera 9.8. Like with all releases, the rollout takes some time before arriving for all users.

Google has made an update so that Video Boost no longer has to be enabled every time you open the Pixel Camera app.

Add Me is one of the Pixel 9’s tentpole camera features, and Google has a blog post today explaining how it was developed. Personally, I’ve noticed that people didn’t really use Add Me until the holiday season.

With the December 2024 Feature Drop, Pixel Camera 9.7 is rolling out “Quick access controls.”

Pixel Camera 9.6 started rolling out in mid-October with a handful of additions introduced with that month’s Feature Drop. This version should now be more widely available via the Google Play Store.

With the October 2024 (Feature) Drop, Google is rolling out Pixel Camera 9.6 to all supported devices. The Pixel 9 series is currently on version 9.5, but anything older remains on 9.4.

Google is rolling out Pixel Camera 9.5 for Wear OS beyond the Pixel Watch 3 with a handful of usability updates.

The latest Google Camera 9.5 update is rolling out now, and it even includes manual controls for the Astrophotography mode on Pixel.

As always, the Pixel 9 series introduces many new camera features. It remains to be seen what will be brought to older devices in future Feature Drops, but Pixel Camera 9.5 is now out there.

The June Feature Drop continues to roll out through a series of app updates. Pixel Camera 9.4 brings manual lens section to the Pixel 6/7 Pro and Fold, as well as other tweaks.

While Google’s Pixel family has had its ups and downs over the years, the bright spot has always been the camera. In a new interview, Google’s Isaac Reynolds, the head of Pixel Camera, reflects on the Google Camera app over the years, and how AI is changing photos.

The Pixel Camera app on Wear OS that acts as a controller was recently updated with the ability to switch to the various photo and video modes on your Pixel Watch.

Google is rolling out Pixel Camera 9.2 with a number of updates, like the new UI for older devices and some tweaks for the Pixel 8.

Google Camera has been exclusive to Pixel devices for several years now, and it’s now being renamed on the Play Store to better reflect that fact.

After nearly a decade, Google is removing the “Photo Sphere” mode from Pixel phones, starting with the Pixel 8 series.
