Open Camera

Open Camera is a completely free and open source camera app that offers many more features than other similar apps, including the ability to choose between the different lenses and perspectives available on your Android device. Some of these features, however, are only available on certain devices due to their reliance on specific kinds of hardware.

Tons of options for your photos

Open Camera offers just about everything you could want from a camera app. You can activate and customize a timer, control the zoom manually, use an automatic stabilizer so your photos aren't blurry, enable touch focus, choose between several different photo modes (STD, NR, DRO, HDR, Panoramic...), change the camera resolution, choose the image quality, and even choose the photo format (JPG, PNG, or WebP). In short, you will be able to use your Android device's camera in exactly the way you want.

Choose the best camera for your photos

Almost all mobile devices have several rear cameras, but very few apps allow you to manually choose which one you want to use. The vast majority of photo apps automatically choose whichever one it thinks is the best rear camera for each situation. However, Open Camera allows you to make that decision for yourself. This way, you can give the look you want to all the photos you take. You can check how the image looks with each camera, then choose the one you like best.

Add or remove as much or as little metadata as you like

Another interesting feature of Open Camera allows you to decide exactly how much metadata you want included on your photos. For example, if you want, you can remove exif metadata about the device you're using. Again, the goal of this app is to give you as much freedom as possible when taking photos and videos.

One of the best camera apps for Android

Download Open Camera's APK to discover an excellent camera app that, although it doesn't have lots of filters and other goodies usually included on other photo apps, does offer a lot of customization options. More importantly, this app doesn't have any ads, and it takes up almost 10 times less space on your device's memory than practically all other alternatives for Android. In short, this is an ideal photo app for photography lovers.
