Is there any 3rd Party camera apps that work as good as the stock app for the GS7 but with better HDR? I was looking at the play store but there's hundreds of apps and I don't know what really works good these days. I have tried other apps in the past on other phones but never got used to them or liked them. What are others using?

I also tried a lot of camera apps (Note 4 + SGS 7 Edge), but in my opinion no 3rd party app can ever match the picture quality of the stock camera.

plus i haven't found a 3rd party camera android or ios that will let you take pictures while recording video like the stock cameras do nowadays.
Always found stock to be best, even with my S5
One of the reasons I didn't stick with custom ROMs for long

So getting the Google Pixel probably isn't the best thing to do then if one wants a better camera then googles "simple" camera. I prefer getting a good phone with a good stock camera from experience with other phones, moto Razer HD and HTC One M7.
after reading and watching tons of reviews and reading forums, so far the GS7 is about the best phone for me at this time overall. I guess i'll stick with it till the next best thing next year. Now if i can get a camera app that does HDR as good as the Pixel.

The Google Pixel camera will be optimised to it's own camera app, afaik reason stock camera app for the Galaxy phones is best, is down to the camera drivers and algorithms it uses, other camera apps can't produce the same quality
Especially when you are not running a TW ROM (as experienced with Galaxy S5)
Using the Galaxy stock camera app on a Google pixel probably wouldn't look great either

I was looking for a app that rivals the burst mode of the S7 at full resolution and speed. I have found nothing yet in the play store. Wish there was a way to keep the stock camera on. It cuts off after about 2mins on it's own if you don't touch the screen.

I do use Snapseed when i want something edited in a hurry before copying everything to the computer and editing with photoshop. i find it tedious editing on the phone though and when i have thousands of pictures to go through. it's easier on a real desktop monitor to see how good things look to know if i want to delete or not. I love Snapseed but like any other app on the phone they don't have an option to resize the resolution. i copy the originals to the computer for eventual burning off and pick favorites to edit and copy back to the phone.

I flashed MIUI on my phone, but I love the One X camera, especially the burst mode. The MIUI camera sucks in my opinion, what are you favorite alternatives from the market?

I dunno...I tried a couple on the Market with a so-called "burst mode", but they were underwhelming. I think all the developers did was use the video camera and then take rapid-fire pictures with it, based on the quality/size of the pictures that resulted. Which makes sense, if you want a "burst mode" that works on any Android phone, but doesn't really compare to the HTC camera app.
UCam so far has been the best for me. It's not perfect but it has most of the features of the HTC Camera app.
I haven't taken a look at it, but hopefully with the OpenSense SDK, developers will be able to (and choose to) put HTC One X/S/V support into the camera apps.
Until there's an app that's as functional as the Sense camera, I'm gonna stick with HTC-based ROMs.

Props to UCam the Pro version is delight to work with. Great picture quality. All the feature I need really. Stabilizer, bust mode and pic quality for an on-demand snap it's great.
Hey guys, whats the best camera for the htc one x?
when i first got my one x, my stock camera was amazing in quality and clarity, but as i started romming, i get different camera apps like hd or so, and they werent as good as my first one.
so what camera app are you guys using? or is it possible to get that apk for the sense camera again? thanks
Im on CM10 and im trying a camera app called Camera MX. IMO, filters are cool but the pics aint that good to me.
I have to Quote TWONAY, since he also have this Rwquest but on another Mobile.
But the app must work on him also

Is there any light trail camera app for android? I've searched android market and there is one but the picture quality is kinda bad. iPhone had one and I think its better than the one in android market.
Or is it not possible with android's camera?

ALSO, im looking for an app that can take Photos and Videos with the Solarize Effect, like Motorola Milestone, Atrix, Some HTC devices, etc
Hope you can give me an idea.
Thx
Or will a picture always look just as good as if it was taken with stock? I've always wondered about this.
Thanks in advance!

It definitely matters.
The hardware doesn't change, but the software controlling features and camera ability changes significantly between stock/aosp camera apps.
Aosp camera ability is getting much better because the development by Google on the camera app is increasing. However in my opinion, the stock camera application will always be better because it's specifically meant to work on this phone model, and it's been tested and tweaked to work perfectly. The Aosp camera is the same for every single device it supports, meaning it's impossible for it to be tailored for a specific phone model.
In general, every stock TouchWiz rom will have the same camera quality and every Aosp rom will have the same camera quality, with TouchWiz winning quality wise all the time.

I also was wondering this the other day. Since aosp roms tempt to have bad cameras (freezing or not connecting)

Thanks for clarifying this! I've also been wondering and asking myself this question for years if the ROM matters. The downside: This makes the (already hard) decision between AOSP and Sammy ROMs even harder...
So I recently bought a V10 and very pleased with the phone tbh..The only problem I'm finding is that on every 3rd party app (Snapchat,Instagram,Skype etc) that uses the front camera automatically selects the WIDE-ANGLE CAMERA AS THE DEFAULT CAMERA!!!! This can get hella frustrating especially with the fish-eye effect it gives off etc... Now that being said I'm avid snapchat user and the front camera just looks like trash on the V10 unlike coming from a G3, I much prefer the G3 snapchat experience to the V10's. I've seen many other threads from Nov/Oct 2015 saying how snapchat would need to implement the feature of being able to switch between the two front cameras....That was over 7 f**king months ago and they still haven't added a feature to support it. I've written to snapchat myself as well as the other people have too but nothing has been done... Now I have a solution, or kinda. Not too keen on developing apps myself but for whatever reason 3rd party apps believe the default camera is the wide angle one, I'm sure this has to do with software. If there's a developer out there that has or can create an app itself that can trick these apps into thinking the normal selfie camera is the default one then problem solved. I'm just utterly annoyed, hopefully someone can create this app or w/e man. 3rd party apps need to support this feature

The V10 may be the only phone current that has dual facing cameras, but in the near future other phones will start to adopt this idea. There's no going around that.

i doubt about that...the only phone who will have again dual front cameras is V20 in september...i dont see more dual front cameras in phones this year, maybe next year company's put it but dont forget: LG was first, same for the back camera LG was first!
- i dont understand why other brands take advantage of LG ideas and then try to copy them and people dont valorize LG for they work. LG is the best in the world...others only follow (Huawei more talking...)
Actually I believe the dual camera is being moved to the back instead of the front.
