In this article, we will help you out with Best Google Camera (Gcam) Application for Oneplus 6 & 6T.

Pre-Requisites

Support for Camera2 API
If Camera2 API is not supported, you’ll need to enable it on your phone
GCam Mod APK

Camera2 API is a framework that allows third-party developers to obtain access to granular camera controls such as exposure, focus, and ISO. They then use it in their third-party apps in the form of advanced features.

These days many smartphones do come baked with the Camera2 API, but it’s not necessary that it’s enabled by default.

To check whether your smartphone supports the Camera2 API, you need to install the Camera2 API Probe app from the Play Store.

If Camera2 API is not enabled on your device, then you can enable Camera2 API by rooting your device and editing the “build.prop” file on your phone. You can also use Magisk to enable Camera2 API.

Once the Camera2 API is enabled by using any of the above-mentioned methods or it was already enabled on your device, then you have to install the Google Camera Mod on your phone.
