Emir BardakçıXiaomi camera users can exhale now as the firm has confirmed its new camera interface will not cut back on functionality. Product Manager Bao from the camera division of Xiaomi has allayed user fears of the removal of current functions, assuring they will all remain in place while past features will get a well-thought-out redesign. This is welcome news for all lovers of both clean design and extensive camera features in smartphones.
What is New in Xiaomi’s Camera Interface
The renewed camera app keeps all the functionality everyone’s familiar with while bringing a cleaner, more straightforward experience. A slew of significant changes is being made according to official releases, including
- “Director Mode” is now incorporated in the “Pro Video Mode > Menu Bar”
- Low-frequency operations (referring to reference lines, shooting techniques, object tracking, audio source tracking) will be shifted to locations
- All customised settings will remain intact, such as function placement and access methods
- It is possible to configure custom capabilities by using “General Settings > Preserve Camera Status”
You should know that the release schedule for updates for older phones from Xiaomi will be delayed to some extent, as the firm requires some time to correctly implement functional components for various device specifications.
Personalization Choices Are Not Impacted
One of the most valued strengths of Xiaomi’s camera software has always been its customizability. As the firm confirms, the update will preserve all original personal settings, including:
- Your ideal function configuration
- Way to access extra modes (more button or swipe up)
- Camera color settings (such as the red theme setting)
- The system will reset to default setting (yellow theme color, swipe up gesture, opening animation for the first screen) only if users manually clear the camera app data.
Bonus Feature: New Shutter Sound Effects to Arrive
As a bonus for Xiaomi camera users, the camera product manager further disclosed that the characteristic shutter noise effect launched alongside the Xiaomi 15 Ultra will become available to all Leica Xiaomi partnership models within the upkeep period. This incremental yet significant addition is one example of the care Xiaomi has for detail in delivering an exceptional camera experience.
For users of Xiaomi wanting to optimize camera capabilities, you may update your camera program using the HyperOS Updates website or by downloading the MemeOS Enhancer program from the Play Store. MemeOS software has further advantages such as gaining access to some of the secret features of Xiaomi, system program updates, and access to screen updates.
