Users had to downgrade to an older release of the camera app to use it again.<br \/>\nTo fix the issue, users on GrapheneOS build v2025102300 and older can install the GmsCompatLib app v100 from the GrapheneOS store.<br \/>\nA future GrapheneOS build (v2025102600) will include the Pixel Camera app fix natively, eliminating the need for extra installation.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/grapheneos-pixel-camera-app-3609484\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Pixel Camera app\u00a0<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/grapheneos-pixel-camera-app-3609484\/\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">began crashing<\/a> on de-Googled aftermarket OS solutions, such as GrapheneOS. If users didn\u2019t have Google Play Services on their device, the Pixel Camera app would either crash or refuse to start. As it turns out, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/pixel-camera-play-services-requirement-reason-3609555\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">actual issue was a missing font<\/a>.
