Default apps

[Carrie Greicar]

Sorry if this has been asked already, I searched the forum and didn't see anything about it. How can I set a default app? The app in particular is google camera. I know where to go to set the app, but there is no default camera app, and when I try to set the google camera as the default camera, everything is grayed out. Is it even possible to set the google camera as the default?

Unfortunately, nope. This is one of the apps that only the stock option can be set as the default.

Thanks! That actually helps a lot.

Depending on how you access the camera, however, you might be able to just replace the shortcut. The only place that basically cannot change is the power button shortcut and the in-app calls for stock camera API (some apps use their own camera)

Thanks I have the shortcut linked directly on my home screen.
