Revive Moment Pro Camera for Android (Pixel Focused)
Bring back active development for the Moment Pro Camera app on Android. If managing software fragmentation across every Android manufacturer is too bandwidth-intensive, focus development strictly on Google Pixel devices.
Why Focus on Pixel?
Predictable Hardware Base: Google’s unified Tensor ecosystem and standard CameraX APIs remove the nightmare of maintaining dozens of custom OEM flavors.
Pro-Grade Hardware Deserves Pro Software: Pixel devices feature elite mobile camera hardware, but creators using attachable lenses (like Moment Anamorphic or Macro options) need dedicated manual controls, custom color profiles, and reliable on-device desqueezing.
Streamlined Dev Load: Restricting support to a single, flagship hardware lineup makes testing, stability, and feature rollout manageable for a small engineering team.
Key Features Needed
Manual Controls: Granular shutter speed, ISO, manual focus distance, and white balance control.
Anamorphic Lens Support: Real-time video/photo desqueezing tailored to Pixel sensors.
RAW + Flat Video Profiles: Uncompressed capture modes optimized for mobile color grading.
Bottom Line: The mobile creator community on Android—especially Pixel users—wants a dedicated, reliable manual tool. Prioritizing Pixel allows Moment to deliver a rock-solid app without drowning in device fragmentation.

I appreciate the love and fervor - but there is no plan to support Android at this time.
We are two man team and running an Android app in tandem with the iOS app is not sustainable for us right now. Our iOS app is still good ways away from becoming our fully realized vision - but maybe after we hit that milestone this is an idea we can entertain - but that wouldn’t be for another year or so before we could really bring this into consideration.
Just want to be totally up front with you not to expect this any time soon if ever.
Appreciate the time you took to message us though.
Cheers
