TL;DR
- The new Pixel Camera 10.x update now requires Google Play Services, causing crashes on GrapheneOS and other de-Googled systems.
- Users can fix this by rolling back to version 9.9.106.773153235.19 of the app.
Google’s latest Pixel Camera update (version 10.x) apparently doesn’t play nice with privacy-focused operating systems. According to a report from Kuketz Blog, the new Pixel Camera app now has a hard dependency on Google Play Services. That means if you’re using GrapheneOS or another de-Googled system, the app will probably crash or fail to launch entirely.
