After debuting on the Pixel 10 (version 10.0), Google is rolling out the Pixel Camera 10.1 update to older devices with a handful of Material 3 Expressive tweaks.
On the viewfinder, the capture button is now a solid circle with a transparent ring. The two buttons flanking it are now rounded squares, with the preview of your last image getting a new animation that’s reminiscent of a photo booth.
Google has reduced how many icons are themed with Dynamic Color. There are font size tweaks throughout the UI, including the zoom shortcuts.
Old vs. new
Inactive controls in “Photo Settings” are also now rounded squares, while what’s selected is placed in a circle. The “General” and “Pro” top tabs get a similar treatment. The “More settings” button at the bottom has been moved to the top-right corner of the sheet with an ellipsis icon. This shrinks the panel’s height for improved one-handed reachability.
The “Camera settings” page makes use of Material 3 Expressive containers to group related preferences and the latest toggle style. This list is device-dependent, but on a Pixel 8 Pro you have:
- General: Save location, Camera sounds, Device storage, Camera scan suggestions
- Composition: Framing hints, Grid type, Keep selfies as seen, Guided Frame
- Fast access: Quick access controls, Volume key action, Palm timer
- Photo: Rich color in photos, Ultra HDR, Social media depth features, Frequent faces, Astrophotography, RAW / JPEG control
- Video: Video stabilization, Audio zoom, Store videos efficiently, Optimize FPS*
- Advanced capture: Timer light, Show dirty lens warning, (Pixel 9+: Underwater photography and video)
- Help & feedback: Send feedback, Help
*Optimize FPS — “Automatically adjust from 60 FPS to 30 FPS to optimize the recording experience when needed” — is new to the Pixel 8 Pro and Pixel 9 after debuting on the Pixel 10.
Google removed the “Advanced” menu and redistributed things so that there’s just one main Settings list, with the groupings making thematic sense.
Pixel Camera 10.1 is slowly rolling out now via the Play Store. (We got it on a Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 8 Pro.) You can also sideload, but be aware it’s 1.47 GB download.
