How To Install Google Camera 8.0 in All Android Smartphones?

There are a few basic requirements that need to be met to install Gcam. Your phone must be running on Android 10 and it must have camera2 API support. Apparently, Google Play Store has apps to check if your phone supports camera2 API or not. You can always install an older version of Gcam if you are running Android 9.0 or below. 

The process is quite simple and we are sure you must have done it at least once although with other apps. 

Step 01: You need to download the GCcam v8.0 APK file from here. It is also referred to as sideloading a third-party app.

Step 02: Navigate to Settings >> Security >> Enable Unknown Sources to Install the apk from any external source. Note that this may differ based on which smartphone you use. For OnePlus, you have to navigate to Settings >> Apps & Notifications >> Special App Access >> Install Unknown Apps.

Step 03: Go to your ‘Downloads’ section and tap on the APK.

Step 04: Follow the prompts to install the app and finally, tap on ‘Open’ to launch it.

That’s all that you need to know about using Gcam on your Android smartphone.
