The Pixel 3 and the Pixel 3 XL phones have been experiencing an annoying camera bug that cause the phone camera to stop working for third-party apps. Everytime one tried to use the camera within a third-party app like Instagram or Snapchat, the camera would show an error message and only a reboot would make it work again. The December update for Pixel 3 fixed the issue, according to a few affected users. Although, some claim that even after the update, the issue persists. The patch note for the December Security update states that the camera capture performance on the Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3 and the Pixel 3 XL has been improved. Google didn’t state the bug has been fixed explicitly though. In fact, the company is yet to acknowledge the bug officially or even announce an update will be pushed to fix it. The bug was first reported back in November when several users took to Google forums and Reddit to report the bug. Booting the phone in safe mode or doing a factory reset didn’t help either. The pesky camera bug isn’t the only problem the Pixel 3 phones have though. Users have reported the phone sometimes doesn’t save images if the HDR mode was on. That bug was eventually recognised by Google and the company stated a fix was coming. Furthermore, some Pixel 3 XL users reported the phone grew a second notch, as if that one big horrifying notch wasn’t enough.
