As you may have read, CyanogenMod's camera app, Focal, was recently removed after the company was incorporated. Focal lead developer Guillaume Lesniak (Xplodwild) is believed to have left due to differences between himself and the newly formed company. Lesniak was left with just a few options on what to do with his creation.

The app has already found a new home late on Saturday night. The camera app made its way to the Google Play Store and with it comes the “beta” name; therefore, users can expect the occasional hiccup here and there.  

Focal is a full featured camera app that brings suchs tools as automatic picture enhancement (auto-awesome). Depending on your device, you might also get color adjustments, HDR, and manual light measure points. There is even a quick shot mode, allowing you tap anywhere on the screen to take a picture just like the Moto X.

Features

  • A photo and video mode, supporting many features (burst mode, timer mode, scene mode, shutter speed on Sony devices, …)
  • A panorama mode, currently semi-broken
  • A PicSphere mode, open-source replacement of Google's PhotoSphere, to do 360° sphere shots
  • A review drawer, by sliding from the top of the screen (in portrait). It shows your latest pictures.
