Google is reportedly working on a completely new, completely improved camera app for Android mobile devices. According to Engadget, the tech company will overhaul the UI, allowing users to selectively defocus the background on portrait shots, as well as improved Panorama and Photo Sphere features.
The update will arrive through a standalone update to Android’s camera app. It will also provide support for third-party filters, enabling developers to create customized effects that users can download for their own camera app.
The alleged new features are said to resemble Nokia’s Refocus app, as well as HTC’s camera features for their One smartphone, which includes creating custom filters.
