Usually, that makes stock camera apps better than third party apps. OEMs simply know their camera setups better and optimize more appropriately. This is especially true for Google, Samsung, and Huawei phones that use AI and other software optimizations in conjunction with the camera hardware. Still, a third party app may be useful in some scenarios. Here are the best camera apps for Android!
Finally, keep in mind that newer versions of Android may force use of the stock camera app anyway. It’s just something to keep in mind. We also recommend Motion Cam (Google Play link) and A Better Camera (Google Play link) as honorable mentions. Motion Cam just has some neat ideas. A Better Camera is actually pretty good but it doesn’t get updates anymore.

Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop Camera
Price: Free / $52.99 per month
Adobe Lightroom is technically a photo editor and not a camera app. However, it also comes with a camera app built-in. The camera is reasonably decent and includes big keyword features like HDR, RAW support, and various modes and presets. Plus it has the usual array of manual camera controls if you need that as well. The good news is Adobe Lightroom is one of the best photo editor apps for mobile right now so you can use the camera app and immediately bounce it right into editing. Adobe also launched Adobe Photoshop Camera (Google Play link) in 2020 with a variety of features, including various filters, real-time Photoshop effects, auto-tone, portrait mode controls, and more. It’s mostly a camera for social media types, but it’s still a decent option overall.

Bacon Camera
Price: Free / $1.99
We’ll be honest. We thought Bacon Camera was a joke app when we first saw the name. However, this is a legitimately decent camera app. It boasts manual controls such as focus, white balance, exposure compensation, ISO, and more. You also get support for RAW and DNG along with the traditional JPEG. It boasts support for manual controls on devices that don’t support Google’s Camera2 API. We didn’t have any test devices that didn’t support that, so we’ll take their word on it for now. Some other features include GIF support, a panorama mode, and timed shots. This is surprisingly good and the pro version is surprisingly cheap. The only issue is update support. This one hasn’t seen an update since 2019 (as of the time of this writing), so it may not be supported anymore.

Camera FV-5
Price: $3.95
Camera FV-5 was removed from the list a while back due to lack of updates. However, it seems FGAE wasn’t done with this one yet. The current version of Camera FV-5 is actually pretty good. It has a swatch of manual controls, exposure bracketing, and even more specialized stuff like a built-in intervalometer. The list of features is simply too long for a simple list like this to encompass. The app runs for $3.95 and gets regular updates as of the time of this writing. The only downside is some phones seem to behave poorly with this one so make sure to give it a proper test inside the refund time in case your phone is one of them.
