Open the camera app - swipe to the right - there's an option for dual camera. This allows you to take a photo of what's in front of you and behind you at the same time. It overlays the photo (selfie) onto the picture you just took from the rear camera. Well when I hit this option on my phone it says the camera has failed. I looked in the Galaxy App Store to see if it needs an update, and it is nowhere to be found.
Anybody else have this issue or know a fix?

seems I don't have this option. Which type do you have?
I have an unlocked Note8 and I don't have dual camera mode on mine. Nor does it appear to be listed as a downloadable package.
I have a TMOBILE Note 8:
Here's what I am talking about.
That mode doesn't exist on my AT&T Note 8.
Isn't available for download either.
T-Mobile here as well and i don't have that option either.
He downloaded that app from the Samsung app store

I didn't download it. It probably came over from my s8+ because I can't find it in the galaxy app store
I didn't download it, and I have the US Unlocked Note 8 on T-mobile. It works for me, it opens up fine. Can't really test out since I'm in a dark car now, but I can see both cameras working fine.

Also have the Sprint version and I don't have that Dual Camera setting and I don't even have the download setting to add any either. So odd.
I was able to send my self the beauty face apk and install it and that shows up. I guess someone will upload somewhere the other apks like dual camera to manually install.

It's not available in the Samsung app store.
Only 3 options exist and dual camera isn't one of them.
According to Sammobile, Samsung is sending out an OTA update that addresses some things about the camera and about wireless charging. Hoping the update includes the missing camera modes.
I'm on tmobile and it was already there. I think from when I had it from the note 7 because it has the download arrow next to it.

Is it possible you just answered your own question? Not knowing anything about cameras, could it be our S8+'s one rear camera app is not compatible with the Note 8's double rear camera?? Just a guess.
Hope you sort this out.

Yea not here. It probably got move over form your old phone. Happen to me before with on of my phones.

I have the Nexus 9 and happened to be in a Best Buy yesterday and they finally had them out on display. I was messing around with it and I opened the camera app and noticed that at the top that there were 2 tabs. One said Film Strip view and the other said Grid view. Mine does not show this nor am I able to find an option to enable it.
Does anyone else have this or know anything about it?

Most likely the one from play store will get updated as well which is why i have uploaded the last version with the included action memo.
I can verify that the Samsung Acct sync option worked fine, all my action notes from my Note edge cam over just fine.

They want to integrate everything into one apps but to some of us kind of failed. One of the best thing about action memo is their link to action feature... we lose it with the new samsung memo and lots of other stuff that was in Snote were missing.
Samsung Note is getting thrashed with all the 1 star reviews over at playstore (and rightly so IMO). Wonder how they can come out with this so called all in one note app that is half-baked and lacking in so many features that it felt more like an alpha rather than a fully conceptualised app.

S-note has a ton of features, my favorite is photo note, I can take a photo of a piece of paper, a drawing, or text, and then I can write on it, and edit it. S-Note converts it into a text/line art image that I can easily modify. Used it at least once a week. It was one of the Note line killer features, and was heavily advertised, years ago. Also you could seamlessly write on photos. In Samsnung Notes, text, photos, and writing all live separately on the page, with S-note you could write all over the page, no matter what was under it.
I actually came to this thread to encourage everyone to rate Samsung Notes on the playstore and help them see the need for a change. I understand updating an app, but this removed 75% of the features. If it wasn't for screen off memo, the Samsung Notes app would be completely useless.

Jovy coming through. Thanks much for posting this man. Was sooooo missing action memo.
Edit:
One thing I noticed is that doing this does get rid of the ability to do off-screen notes. Kinda a bummer.

Screen of notes still go to Samsung Note. They are still there, just harder to find.
They are pushing out a update to s-note via the samsung galaxy store. I fear it will override the S-Note I have, and take away action notes.

Samsung MIGHT be listening... this is a snip of the response I got on the trashing review I wrote on Samsung Note on the Play Store.
We are carefully reviewing for supporting Action Memo next version. However, For those who want to keep using S Note, it can be downloaded via Google Play Store.

Of course they don't mention that all the updates to S-note take away the action memo. So one hand is carefully reviewing it, and the other hand takes it more, and more away.

From the comments in the Google Play Store Samsung is telling people to download S Note there if they still want to have things like Action Memo, so I don't think they will take that away. They need to add that function into the new Samsung Note. Crazy that they took it away.
Edit: In fact I got a response from Samsung about this just now. They are looking into support for Action memo in the next release. So there is some hope.

Problem is, they turned off comparability with the s note for the note 7. So that isn't a solution.
I tried to download S-Note from the app store but it said my device was incompatible and I couldn't Install. I used the above link from jovy23. Thank you, thank you. Don't understand why Samsung would get rid of one of the Note's greatest features.

It does not exist for photos, no. But after I accepted the terms for google lens on Google assistant, the Google lens in photos appeared. I wonder how long the lens icon was there before I noticed it..
How do you tell this to other people, because no one else in XDA or google say it started rolling out yet.

One of the main features of the new Google devices is the camera. The company has been continuously focusing on delivering a great camera user experience. Additionally, Pixel phones are known for being good smartphone shooters. That’s also the case with the new Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL phones announced yesterday. Now that they’re official, APKs are starting to pop up, and the first one is the camera app.

Hey guys, I have a little question: I've downloaded pixel 3 camera on my 2XL device and tried to use it. But, however, i was dissatisfied with the result: IMO old camera made better shots.
Can I, somehow, rollback to previous version? I tried to install older APKs from APK Mirror, but that didnt work: system always gives an error "APK is not installed"
I think it's just a matter of time for us to get night sight and top shot.
Google could improve AR stickers. It was so much advertised but it is still so much underrated.

Go into the Camera app info screen and disable it. It will downgrade it to the factory version. Then re-enable it and you should be good to go.

How to install to android 8.1? Mi 6X

Android/iOS
Any one else notice how the UI is just a flipped version of the camera UI on iOS??
is Pop Color enabled?
Yep! pop, depth, zoom and the new panorama, it's missing the tracked focus on video and the auto shoot on expressions

For what it's worth, I have had it installed around a full day with no issues. Shots are comparable in daylight. Over on YouTube user/zedomax has a quick comparison of running the app on a Pixel 2 against the old app on a 2XL and the low light performance seems to be improved in some situations.

Nope.
Seems as the older camera apk has a better image. Just compared both. The older apk is for sure more clear and less noise on the 2XL.
I'll wait until the official features roll out to the 2XL users.
Thanks for sharing however.

After this Feb 8 update the portrait mode selfies and the video call effects stopped working on my Verizon Galaxy S21+. A reboot fixes it but only for a few hours maximum. I even did the dreaded factory reset and that did not work either. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks.
what do you mean by it stopped working? it force closes?
No there is no blur effect and most of the other effects are non functional. Coincidentally video call effects stop working the same exact time so there has to be a connection there. It will work after a reboot but only for a few hours tops. Factory reset did not help. Issue popped up right after the Feb 8 update on Verizon which included updates to both the camera and video call effects.
There are also a few other people who posted about the same issue on the Samsung Community forums.
