Google Camera app update brings the new design to everyone

Prasad, 19 November, 2015

If you have been wondering why the Google Camera app on your non-Nexus or older Nexus phones doesn't have the same UI as the new Nexus 6P and 5X camera app, then you can stop wondering now, as Google has updated the app to match the design of the new one.

The updated app now has the same look as the one on the newer Nexus devices, including sideways swipe to switch between photo and video modes.

Unfortunately, if you have also been looking forward to the new features such as the burst mode or slow motion, then you might be disappointed, as neither of those are available on other devices. Also, certain devices don't even get the Auto HDR+ mode, and you will have to switch manually. So for all intents and purposes, this is just a redesign.

Does work on Nexus 5 Marshmallow. Crashed the first time and used it, then forced closed my whole phone the second time. No longer opens, nor does any other phone app. Google what did you do? Fix ASAP, please.

I downloaded this app for my note 4 just for the lens blur effect which looks super cool, but sadly no support for 4k video recording
