Google Messages upgrades Camera UI for photos, videos

Google Messages app is getting a new camera UI to offer a smoother photography and videography experience. It’s being reported that the new camera UI replaces the default viewfinder on Android’s default messaging app.

Google Messages app is rolling out (server-side) the new camera UI to a limited number of users. You can access it by opening a specific chat and looking for the camera icon in the text field.

If it’s available on your device, you may also access the built-in camera through a quick icon at the top right on the home screen beside the search button, however, the overall functionality is basic as of now.

Meanwhile, the new UI ditches some elements such as you could use a settings cog that gives you options like camera flash, timer, and “More settings.” Also, there was a handy button in the bottom-right corner that lets you tweak the exposure and white balance.
