I hate Google photos because I feel it’s too invasive with that cloud backup that you never really know if a photo is online or on device, so I disabled it in my Google Pixel.

Now Google camera is broken, says it can’t show previews until I enable Google photos again.

Is there any workaround? Tried with many other galleries, but seems it’s hard coded to Google photos…

    Another alternative is the GrapheneOS camera app.

    I don’t use GrapheneOS, but their camera is available via GitHub

    https://github.com/GrapheneOS/Camera

    If you want, you can use Obtainium to keep it up to date.

    Of course, Open Camera and Simpl Camera are great options too.
