Notable changes in version 38:
- completely overhaul the in-app gallery and thumbnail preview with asynchronous file handling to avoid stalling the user interface or slowing down app launch time
- improve robustness and performance of the in-app gallery
- use asynchronous preference saving to avoid stalling the user interface
- inherit normal mode settings for the secure mode (lockscreen) activities and use in-memory storage for changes instead of storing the preferences in unique files
- show file name in gallery delete dialog
- use MB instead of MiB for size display to match the OS and use the proper suffix case
- fix error reporting UI initialization
- fix crash when launching video only activity with no previously captured videos
- avoid resetting camera mode preferences on app upgrade
- work around severely broken focus region support on the OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 6T by replacing the region with a point to avoid crashing the OS camera service after starting the QR/barcode scan mode
A full list of changes from the previous release (version 37) is available through the Git commit log between the releases.
This app is available through the Play Store with the app.grapheneos.camera.play app id. Play Store releases go through review and it usually takes around 1 to 3 days before the Play Store pushes out the update to users. Play Store releases use Play Signing, so we use a separate app id from the releases we publish ourselves to avoid conflicts and to distinguish between them.
Releases of the app signed by GrapheneOS with the app.grapheneos.camera app id are published in the GrapheneOS app repository and on GitHub. You can use the GrapheneOS app repository client on Android 12 or later for automatic updates.
Releases are initially pushed out through the Beta channel for both the Play Store and our app repository and then get moved to the Stable channel.
