Google's HDR+

Hello there,
i don't know if this is already answered, but i didn't find it somewhere.
Google's HDR+ is a feature of NEXUS phones. And it is a software. I've seen photos in 5X way better (closer to natural) than my LG G4. It is very clear specially in portraits which i prefer shooting. I installed latest Google's camera apk, it works, but not the HDR+.
Does anybody know if it is possible to have HDR+ in an other phone eg. LG G4 (which is not rooted)?
Should we wait a little bit for this?
Thanks on advance for any answer......
Im very interested in this too
Only nexus.If want better HDR use raw +ps

Can I load Samsung Photo Application on XL

HI - I have a Pixel XL and like a lot about the phone, but I LOVE the photo app for the Galaxy S7 or Note 5. Is there any way to load the Samsung Photo apk on a pixel? If so, any tips are appreciated.
Same request here.. If anyone can help..
I wish we could, I have been trying to. The problem is, Google use to primarily function as the developer that produces software to operate on all of the devices running Android, so if you had a Samsung phone you could install any application for the most part off the play store or published by Google. We are now however in uncharted waters where users now own a Google device and are looking to run software from another manufacturer. Unlike Google Samsung doesn't give there software away for free as open source, they sell their software as part of the package in buying one of their devices.
It's a bad situation since Samsung built their photo gallery from Google's com.android.gallery.3d, but than stopped developing the app all together once they decided to merge their Google photos app with the standard device gallery. It was at that point that Samsung developed the app further, adding all the features such as playing video with the devices screen off, advanced tile viewing above 3 photos per line ect, ect.

Google Photos "Bug"

Not sure if this is an actual bug, but it was present on the Nexus 6P since Oreo, and Google has opened a bug tracker for it. Says fix maybe in future release. Now same thing present on Pixel 2 XL. Pictures from 3rd party camera apps not appearing in Google Photos.

What about Motion Photos experience on Pixel?

Hi everyone,
I've had an S7 edge and loved its motion photos feature. Now I'm on an xperia xz and just can't wait to get a Pixel XL. I wanted to know from everyday users how is the Motion Photos experience on Pixel XL. As far as I've done my research, Motion Photos was officially supported on Pixel XL on google camera v5.0, however since 5.1 it is not anymore.
1) Do you guys use Motion Photos on Pixel XL?
2) Do you need to have an older version (5.0) in order of it to work?
3) Or do you use a modded version of Google Camera (like Camera NX) ?
4) Is it buggy?
5) Does it work flawlessly as if it were on Pixel 2?
No one here uses Motion Photos?
Camera NX here. Works well.
