Android Go phones have their own ecosystem of Google apps, which are lighter in weight to run well on these low power devices. Google Camera Go arrived in March as a simple alternative to the Google Camera, albeit without many of its benefits. Now it starts to come el modo HDR a Google Go camera.
Google Camera Go is a very simple camera app that was missing at launch some of the pillars that made Google’s camera famous. The first of these, Night Mode, arrived in October, with the promise that HDR would arrive before the end of the year. Said and done: HDR mode started to be activated on some mobiles with Android Go
Modo HDR and Android Go
Google Camera Go, the miniature Google camera for the most basic Android phones, already has HDR mode. Of course, it’s not as powerful as the HDR or HDR + mode of the GCam, but something is something considering the low power and the fact that in these devices the camera lenses are usually not a subject of writing.
Google has announced that it has already started enabling HDR mode in Google Camera Go, keeping the promise that it will arrive before the end of the year. This time around, we don’t have much more information or an explanatory video, but just one example of an image they posted on Twitter, comparing the difference between HDR mode on or off

Of course, it includes the fine print that “results may vary by manufacturer”, and that’s that the app does its part, but it always depends on the hardware of the device. Google has not shared which devices it will activate first, although if we take night photography as an example, the first should be the Nokia 1.3, the Wiko Y61 and the Wiko Y81.
Although you can download the APK of Google Camera Go from APKMirror, you will get a normal camera app with no night mode and no HDR mode, which is only enabled for specific models.
