Specify how it has much better quality, then post that spec in some github of your favourite camera app.

Your data is the price for the google app, it isn’t free. They can do what they want with it. And you buy it.

My advice for you is to shake off the google camera addiction and notice how good the alternatives are. Good enough for sure, and getting better. I have not missed google camera at all.

Maybe try this freedcam as well.

Use Open Camera, or the GrapheneOS Camera app or another FOSS alternative.
