Wondering what people are thinking about this and why the internet is so quiet about it. I am not happy. Today it decided I couldn’t use the camera without giving it extensive permissions and agreeing to it. Not cool.

Get a mirrorless camera! One small enough to carry around.
They can transfer photos to your phone wirelessly, these days.
…Or, as a lesser extreme, a third party camera app.
Even easier is a usb-c card reader so you can plug it in your phone directly. I find the camera connecting apps a bit finicky. (Also “these days” made me chuckle since it’s been a thing for like 14 years now)
Good to know, thanks!
Scouring the camera market has been my intense interest for the past few months, so if you actually looking for one, I might be able to point in a direction.
Like a real camera, not inside the phone? Or app? I suspect the phone is not allowing me to change the default camera. What do you suggest?
For stills, I am a bad source for Android camera app advice because I’m on iOS. But for video, I can tell you the Blackmagic app is incredible.
As for a dedicated camera, not gonna lie, they aren’t cheap. You probably want something used or older, depending on your shooting priorities. Stills or video? Indoor, or outdoor? Fast, or slow subjects? Do you want a lot of zoom, or do you tend to shoot close up? And how much would you spend for a camera you keep for many years?
I hardly ever take video. I take stills, just point and click, nothing fancy, when I want or need. I need a camera app for banking, id, authentication. Also, share photos on Signal and email. Just curious what you would recommend, but I am not buying a real camera anytime soon.
