Since the launch of the Google Pixel 7, the phone has received rave reviews from critics with regard to its camera setup. The device constantly grabs headlines in the tech space whenever the topic of the best smartphone cameras comes up. However, Pixel devices are also infamous for being home to various bugs occasionally. In the past, users have faced bugs such as the camera app freezing, and another bug causing auto-rotate and tap-to-wake to stop working. As per reports, the latest bug doesn’t let users save images that they capture while they are zoomed in on the camera app.
Pixel smartphones have encountered a bug that prevents users from saving photos taken while using periscope zoom, with reports coming in from various users of the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro phones. When users take a photo using periscope zoom and try to save it, the camera app hesitates for a while, but ultimately nothing happens. It has been found that the issue occurs with phones that have version 8.7.250.494820638.44 of the Google Camera app, and is likely due to HDR functionality.
However, there is no real danger, and users need not worry about anything serious, such as their phones freezing or spontaneously combusting. Google has not yet commented on the issue, but a fix is expected to be available soon. The company might even ship the fix with the new QPR2 update (or the feature drop) coming later this month, While Pixel phones have had a few bugs in the past, their ever-growing list of features continues to make them some of the best Android phones available.
