I have already doing this manually for a long time. u need to take many astro pics and combine them together using google photos "create animation" works like magic and u have much more control and u also can control the length of exposure. it doesnt need the full time and u can stop it when it shows its stable and it still saves the result

u can see a sample of just how good it works

    AnonD-1003038, 09 Jun 2021Because Android totally never copied anything from iOS. Als... moreWell, another point why android is better. Better than trapped in an ecosystem. As long as i know, it's not android's fault the oem can freely adapting rather than stay in one skin of OS 🤷🏻‍♂️

      AnonD-994853, 09 Jun 2021Still way behind MIUI and COLOROS in terms of features. Eve... moreBut they can't even fix the bugs they have on MIUI 12. Also, Google has an entire OS to take care of and cater to tons of OEM, MIUI just have to deal with ONE skin and they can't even do it well.

        Anonymous, 09 Jun 2021At least it's still better than that iOS started copyi... moreBecause Android totally never copied anything from iOS. Also we should be comparing iOS to stock Android found on Google's own phones, not pick and choose best features from 100 different vendors using their implementations of things and then brag how advanced is Android is as whole. That's literally comparing Apples to Androids...

          Pixels are my favorite phone series. I own the Pixel 3 and it's my favorite smartphone ever. No longer the LG G5. I have my Google Pixel 3 at #1 and iPhone 12 mini at #2. I need wireless charging and they have it. My Pixel 3 still runs well after 2 years.

          My next phone will be a Pixel but I'll get the foldable one. Something different. I stick to the makers of the OS. The smoothest experience. Then I can go to a store or repair shop to get the battery replaced. More unpopular brands are a headache to get fixed.

            The time lapse is just 1 second or less. They should offer an astro mode that takes as long as you want. A very long astro mode would be also very useful for a periscope camera.

                Still way behind MIUI and COLOROS in terms of features. Even android 12 will copy one Ui design language. Hahah
