Notable changes in version 50:
- avoid UI stall for the small delay used to avoid recording the video recording start sound (only relevant with camera sounds enabled)
- switch to non-lazy async sound file preparation to avoid a UI stall when the first sound would be played (relevant even with camera sounds disabled)
- explicitly set media player for media controller as an attempt to work around OS deficiency causing a crash on some devices
- update Kotlin Gradle plugin to 1.7.20
A full list of changes from the previous release (version 49) 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.
