quotingOmarchy Mobile update: a real camera app 📸
nevent1q…c7g0
Linux camera apps were built for desktop and laptop webcams, not for a phone with four cameras. We can fix everything...
Camera (omacam) is now the default camera on Omarchy Mobile:
• All four Pixel 7 Pro cameras: ultrawide, main, selfie and 5× telephoto
• Zoom steps 0.5× / 1× / 2× / 5× that switch lenses for you, plus pinch-to-zoom
• Full-resolution photos, tap-to-focus and autofocus
• Volume keys as the shutter, and a shutter sound you can turn off
• A settings sheet like the ones on Android cameras
• EXIF data on every photo; location is off unless you turn it on
• Video recording (H.264 + Opus), early but working
• Follows your Omarchy theme
Rust + GTK4/libadwaita on mainline Linux and libcamera, with no Android underneath. GPL-3.0.

Will post real photos and videos shortly. I need to go touch (and mow) my grass.

On Omarchy Mobile, the new default camera app writes EXIF data to every photo. Location tagging is off by default and has to be switched on. LOVE TO SEE IT!
