When using google camera to take panoramas, which I do quite often, the camera keeps trying to focus and often takes the shot during this time resulting in totally blurred picture. Is there a way to disable this feature?

Got Vignette app last night, and I am not sure I am using it correctly. At main screen I can see auto focus borders, but they are too wide, so pictures look like they have fixed focus.
My question is: is it possible to reduce those auto focus borders somehow, to get focused item, and blurry edges for the things that are not in focus?

I've Got the Vignette app and there are many options to be tried out.
The focus is very sensetive and i need to take more shots in bright light but so far the best results have been taking the picture via the on screen button and i know this is basic but give the lens a wipe as well.
I have a feeling there is a gerneral bluring with this app regardless to simulate particular film stocks.
To avoid this you can use the normal camera software and import those photos or any photo from your camera roll and apply the style you want then save over the file or save a copy.
I hope this helps.

You mean something like a macro mode?
You could try taking a picture with the 'Vignette' effect added onto it (The name of the effect itself is Vignette)
thanks for quick responses guyz, well I am not sure if it does focus actually. I mean physically lens tries to focus, but I dont think it actually focuses anything, so I thought maybe it is possible to reduce those focus borders to get focused item on image.
pngface, yes something like macro, but not that close
Anyway since vignette is saving images withough jpg compression, daylight images will have even better quality than now(and now they are very good)
Besides manual controls, i should be able to turn off camera sound/click.

try this. This is the best camera app available IMO. Also has the feature to disable the shutter sound
I like manual camera! Price is 1-2 euros but gives you full control for everything: shutter speed, manual focus etc.
I use snap camera from the playstore
I have Snap too but I am not completely satisfied from Snap's quality. Maybe I have to play with the settings but I don't want to have such an app. I like good photos out of the box. Just launch the app and take the photo. Also I am searching a camera app that when your want to take a selfie in the dark, you can enable virtual flash that enables a white frame on the screen with maximum brightness in order to light your face. Like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KFMhlpGUrs on 5.34
Can someone please explain why i am getting these patches on all pictures that i take. I am able to see it when i am using the camera app as well; although if i zoom the patch disappears.
I have checked that it's not an issue with the screen by opening a white background pic, also checked that the camera glass is clean.

It appears to be a smudge or something on the camera lenses or the sensor. As an experiment, take a pic with the other side camera and see if it's there.
Assuming you didn't break or crack something to allow dust in, I would think Google will exchange it.
Anyone noticed the front camera takes reversed (mirrored) image? This is annoying especially if there are numbers in the background. Is there a fix? or can anyone suggest another camera app?
I'm also looking for one that takes vertical panorama pics. I tried Open camera and it doesn't have panorama. And Camera MX, but the quality is horrible.
Thanks!
Just turn off mirror in settings...

Ah... how silly of me. I was checking the setting while in the rear camera mode and never found a way to flip it. Thanks!
Hello, in my stock camera if i take portrait mode picture, the photo comes normal only with no blur, there's no depth effect on any person or object, tried forced stopping still..
It's not a big problem for me as I am using GCam only for portrait photos ? but the stock camera need to run properly
