Google has been testing Android 15 since early this year. The tech company achieved platform stability with the release of Android 15 beta 3.

As always with a new flagship Pixel phone release, a new camera app is released. It’s no different with the Pixel 9 series, as they run the Pixel Camera 9.5 outside the box. We understand older Pixel phones can now install the latest version but might miss out on some features. Google is yet to start rolling out the Pixel camera 9.5 via Play Store, but you can side-load the app when you download the ApK from the APKmirror. As expected, only a few features are available for older Pixel phones, though this might change later. Perhaps we might see…
