Camera App Update? Anyone get it?

[zombiibass]

I just read on Sammy Fans that Samsung has released an update for the camera app via the Galaxy Store. Unfortunately, when I go into the store I don't see any updates available. The new version released is 15.0.02.13 if any one wants to check and see if they got it. You can check through the Galaxy Store or by going to settings in the camera app itself and clicking about About Camera.

I'm still on 15.0.01.71.

I'm a little new to the apk downloads. If this is avaliable, why wouldn't it just be in the Samsung store? I assume this is the update someone pulled from thier device that got the update?

Someone already got it and posted on apkmirror. General rule is never download from 3rd party sites but apkmirror is a trusted host that verifies signatures that they are legitimate and not malware.

That said, I believe those of us with 15.0.01.71 are signed with 29c6, the APK is signed 9ca5. Not compatible for us and fails install.

The other two posters on the innuendo build number probably are 9ca5 signed and could give it a try.

Edit: Above may not be accurate. I haven't had time between work, not sleeping and zoning out to check the signature. All the randomly clicked builds I checked on apkmirror use 9ca5. It's possible, though unlikely (I don't give Samsung that much credit), that Samsung embedded network date based block in the last firmware after which it will be released officially in the store and be installable side loaded. I doubt another firmware update will come out to unlock it with how things have been going but could be wrong.
This all might be a publicity hype to get outlets like OP mentioned to report on "hey it there's something new out there"

Yeah, usually when you see APKs like this online, they’re pulled from someone’s device that already got the update earlier. Samsung rolls out updates in phases, so not everyone gets them at the same time through the Galaxy Store or system updates.


Sites like SammyFans or APKMirror just share those official APK files so people who haven’t received the update yet can install it manually. It’s still the same app — just shared a bit early before it officially hits your region or device.

Yeah, it can be a pain trying to find certain U.S.-only apps when you’re not using the Play Store or don’t have a phone handy. A lot of apps like Best Buy (U.S.) or MyFrontier are region-restricted, so even trusted sites like APKMirror or APKPure sometimes only show the versions that are available in specific countries — like the Canadian Best Buy app you mentioned.


If you can’t find them on those sites, they might just not have been uploaded yet. You could try asking someone with a U.S. Android device to extract the APK using an app like APK Extractor and share it with you (as long as it’s a free app).


Otherwise, you may need to wait until a verified site uploads the correct U.S. versions. Just keep being careful like you are — double-checking APKs and avoiding anything sketchy is the right move
