CameraX Description

CameraX is a Jetpack support library, built to help you make camera app development easier. It provides a consistent and easy-to-use API surface that works across most Android devices, with backward-compatibility to Android 5.0 (API level 21).

- Ease of use
- Consistency across devices
- New camera experiences

While it leverages the capabilities of camera2, it uses a simpler, uses a case-based approach that is lifecycle-aware. It also resolves device compatibility issues for you so that you don't have to include device-specific code in your codebase. These features reduce the amount of code you need to write when adding camera capabilities to your app.

Lastly, CameraX enables developers to leverage the same camera experiences and features that preinstalled camera apps provide, with as little as two lines of code. CameraX Extensions are optional add-ons that enable you to add effects like Portrait, HDR, Night, and Beauty within your application on supported devices.

Comments about CameraX Android Version

The interface is so simple, but it has no option for setting!!! And No Flash?! The camera crashes whenever i switch to front camera. And also, i think the app has very low lighting situation on my phone. Like, i can barely see whats in front the lens through my phone. Can you please solve these??

No video recording capability, filters/effects shows up as "still under development" so pointless having that option there. Unable to save photos to internal memory by default.

Good demo app for devs, not a complete camera app. Unfortunately it does not detect the third camera (the wide angle one) on my Moto G Power, just shows the basic front and back.

Is CameraX safe for my device?

What is an XAPK file, and what should I do if the CameraX I downloaded is an XAPK file?

Open up

A file with .xapk extension is a compressed package file. It is a container file format that incorporates APK and additional associated files required for the installation. The XAPK format was introduced to package the APK file and OBB file together for a seamless delivery and installation process. XAPK format can help reduce the package size of application. On mobile phones, users need to install the XAPK installer first, and then install XAPK files through that installer. You can find the installer here:https://apkcombo.com/how-to-install/. But on PC client, you just need to put the file on LDPlayer.

Can I play CameraX on my computer?

Open up

Yes, you can play CameraX on your computer by installing LDPlayer, an Android emulator. After installing LDPlayer, simply drag and drop the downloaded APK file into the emulator to start playing CameraX on PC. Alternatively, you can open the emulator, search for the game or app you want to play, and install it from there.
