The Google camera app on GrapheneOS was lagging significantly on my Pixel 7 Pro.
A workaround for this is to turn on DISABLE_HARDENED_MALLOC in the “Configure Hardening” settings for this app.
The framerate in the viewer is improved, at least to where it’s not bothersome.
My review of the Pixel 6 Pro vs the crown bearer OnePlus 7 Pro, from the perspective of alternative Android ROMs.
Google Camera and its unholy ports have an option to “Save Location” for photos taken with the app. This adds GPS coordinates to the photo’s EXIF data, making it easier to generate albums by Place. On LineageOS and GrapheneOS this coordinate saving likely won’t work on a fresh install. GCam requires Google Services Framework to start, but uses Google Play Services for location. Google Play Services is probably missing the Location permission “Allow all the time” If you have Google Play Services installed (sandboxed or otherwise), go to Settings > Apps > Google Play Services > Permissions > Location and ensure the permission is Allowed all the time. I’d you’re using MicroG, do the same with the MicroG app. Your photos should now be saved with location data included. There’s likely a good reason why, but on these aftermarket ROMs GPlay Services is not given background location permissions by default. 🤷
