There's a new app that installed itself automatically on my p6 pro. It's probably linked to the upcoming March Feature Drop (night sight available in certain third party apps).
It seems like Google has made a new framework, to give devs the ability to implement gcam with more ease.

This is great news for third party cam mods. Getting GCam features is the last hurdle that many custom cam mods faced, since they had a hard time rivalling Googles computing algorithm.

The Snapchat "Snap at Night" feature drop is now available on the Pixel 6/Pro (QPR3 Beta 1, but might work for Feb Stable?), seems to work great - hopefully this is a step forward in allowing 3rd party apps to use the Camera2 API as previously mentioned upon A12's release.
Update:
Snapchat (11.70.0.36)
Pixel Camera services (1.0.433401302.05)

Google updates 'Pixel Camera Services' to enable Night Sight in Snapchat on Pixel 6
The March Feature Drop introduced the ability for Snapchat to take advantage of Night Sight on Pixel 6. A "Pixel Camera Services" update ...
9to5google.com
Why is everyone trippin over Pixel Camera Services? It was included in the A12 update and installed on all pixels. It just wasn't used until now. Doesn't anybody check their apps list regularly anymore?
all jokes aside, hopefully G will make it easier to implement the camera2 api package for third party apps (starting with SnatChap) so image quality should improve.

What works
The camera runs fine.
Tutorial.
Single shots.
Burst shots.
Video recording.
Front-facing camera toggle.
Swipe to open settings.
Swipe to open gallery, which asks which gallery app you want to launch.
Touch to focus toggle.
Flash mode toggle.
Shutter sound toggle.
Geo-tag toggle.
What doesn't work
Double-flick wrist gesture to launch the camera anytime.
Panorama mode currently crashes.
HDR mode is disabled and cannot be enabled.
Slow-motion mode is disabled and cannot be enabled.

you should probably credit the source: androidpolice as you took all their images, writeup, and mirrors
let some of the code junkies here are diving in to this see if they can get some stuff working
Motorola took down mediafire, d-h, and mirrorcreator link. May want to remove them.
The image quality isn't going to change and half the features don't work ... Do people really want that kind of "functionality" just for a different UI ? ... Give me the stock Sense camera any day.

You do realize this is from a leak right?
Hi All,
I am unable to find all the features promised by JRC in the 4.4.4 update. - I personally am using the ARHD 20.1.
Features as described on this page: http://www.htc.com/us/innovations/eye-experience/
Automatic selfies/voice selfies. Found in settings.
Videochat. I have not been able to try this yet.
Split capture. Select it in modes. (Lame)
Crop-me-in. - I am unable to find this option? - We can cut and paste in pictures taken with the main camera, but we could do this before.
Face-fusion. - I am unable to find this option?
Live-makeup - This is found in settings. - I however do not see any change?
Photo booth - selet it in modes. (Really lame)
They write that not all features are available on all devices... We however have the topmodel? - What are your thoughts on this camera update?
What I personally like the most the video capture butten in the main camera interface.

i think face tracking and multi chat is in hangouts.. this morning i called my mom via hangouts and there was options for face tracking on the top left (maximus HD 8.0)
Experience a better way to video chat with Face Tracking. Sitting perfectly still is no longer necessary, because all you have to do is stay in frame and Face Tracking will automatically focus in on you.
From real-time screen sharing to video chats with up to 4 people, Face Tracking lets you naturally do your thing without compromising quality.
Compatible with most live video services such as Skype, Line, Hangouts, WeChat, and more.

I figured Eye Experience would be a separate update to the Gallery App in the Play Store. It says coming soon on the website, maybe they didn't roll out the graphical/ui changes yet, regardless of the settings being there or not. Crop Me In is exactly cut and paste with the Duo Camera effects stuff.
EDIT: "The HTC EYE Experience features will roll out to the following models in the coming months" IE not out yet.
Note the UI image of the icons.

If you're on stock, you should update as they are mainly new features & bug fixes so you'll have better experience.
If you're on some custom ROM with many tweaks then you need to see whether the ROM dev update them or not in their ROM thread.
Stock ...
I guess by the lack of replies that it's probably safe to assume that the negative feedback on playstore might be from HTC haters ?

I update everything all the time, I never run into any issues if you notice on Google Play Store even the most simple app like a calculator or flashlight still has negative reviews, most of these people posting those reviews are absolute noobs, like preppy school girls, grandma's and gangsters lol
Some reviews are just dumb either saying ONLY "fix it! update messed everything up!" without saying anything is even specifically messed up or something like "now that certain button is blue instead of green? you change without my permission? 1 star!!! fix!"
Some of these updates are actually important either fixing a known issue or making the app more compatible after one of your OTA updates.
Or of course like the new version of the "Google" app for example new features and new pretty animations are added
Cheers chaps, updated everything and the phone still works ?
And it still works ?

Off screen Google voice is not supported
As of today, the latest stock ROM S251_171107_ROW doesn't support off screen hot word detection...

I believe Google disabled that feature some time ago. Anyway, for screen off hotword detection ur phone had to be plugged in to a charger, because it is (3rd party apps might provide such a feature) or was a battery hungry feature.

Thanks for your reply. Even so google could offer the possibility to choose if we really want this feature.

Yo do not want that. As Chillman explained it would eat the battery.
The processor would never go to sleep mode as it will be forced to constantly analyze incoming sounds.
Phones that have this feature have a special low power hardware module that can recognise the hotword. Running voice recognition is very battery intensive when done using software, even this phone will run out of battery pretty quickly if it was recording and analysing ambient noise 24/7.

With the launch of the Pixel 6 and Android 12, At a Glance saw a big redesign. In November, we detailed how the visual revamp was a prelude to Google adding even more capabilities. That At a Glance upgrade, with interesting changes to the backend, is now beginning to roll out.
As of today, long-pressing the very top of the Pixel Launcher and tapping Customize reveals new At a Glance settings that are powered by Android System Intelligence, previously known as Device Personalization Services. We’re seeing this with the latest Google app beta (version 13.2), while ASI has not seen an update since last year. This page starts with a new description:
Your Assistant shows you what you need, right when you need it, on your home screen and lock screen.

Click to collapse
There’s a shortcut to quickly enable/disable “Sensitive notifications” on the lockscreen, while we next get a list of features that are available today:
Timer & stopwatch: Timer and stopwatch info from the Clock app
Bedtime: Your upcoming bedtime from the Clock app
Fitness: Activity info from your fitness app
The first Google Clock integration appeared during the Android 12 Beta, while the fitness tie-in was shown off with the Pixel 6 and Adidas Run app.
As we previously found, Google should be adding several more capabilities to At a Glance:
At a store: Shopping lists and Google Pay rewards cards when you’re in supported stores
Connected devices: Connection status and battery info for your Bluetooth devices
Doorbell: Show who’s at the door when your doorbell rings
Flashlight: Reminder when flashlight is on
Safety check: Safety check countdown from the Personal Safety app
This latest iteration of At a Glance is notable for integrating across key Google and Pixel experiences, like GPay, Personal Safety, and Google Nest.
Meanwhile, you’re still able to access the old At a Glance settings to turn on/off weather, upcoming calendar events/reminders, and more from the bottom of the new preferences page.

I would be interested if anyone on Nova gets these. Checked in the Google Assistant settings in the Google app and so far I haven't.
