This is happening on the Beta as well (v 10.6.6.0). I also noticed that the send button is mostly covered when choosing more than one person.

Ya I noticed that too. I'm glad I'm not the only one. Hopefully they'll fix that soon.
A fix
I have the same issue.

I'm having the same issues here but I was feeling the same way when I use the default camera. Seems like the angle is wider on my S7 than on my S8
I don't think its technically "zoomed" in. If you compare what you see in Snapchat to default camera, you will notice that you still see the same amount of vertical image. But because of the 18.5:9 screen ratio and the way Snapchat works, it crops off a lot of the side image. Same goes for the back camera. And yes, S7 and S6 have much wider front facing camera, it was probably reduced to fit in the focusing mechanisms.
I've noticed if you view Snaps with a 16:9, the top and bottom will be letter boxed. Where as my friends who have also an S8, will fill the full screen.
Hopefully Snapchat will include a way for you to pick a screen ratio, but i doubt it.

Damn, I would take the wider aperture over the auto focus any day.
I'm glad i'm not the only one having issues putting doggo filters on selfies

yea you can definitely tell the difference. i usually just take a normal photo and then use snapchat and select from gallery
I've also noticed this. I hope they fix it. It really annoys me?
Yeah the option to opt out of full screen crop mode is greyed out! I hate the S8 cropping out my pictures and other peoples pictures
I'm having this same problem and it's driving me NUTS. It makes me not want to use snapchat anymore. Grrrrrr.
Horrible hope they fix this!! I don't need close ups of every pore showing up on my face in Snapchat.
Its also pretty annoying where sometimes you can't swipe out of a story (swipe up to get the soft keys to show and then back) as swipe up from the bottom is also "chat" within Snapchat.
My instagram does this too!!! So frustrating. I have to use my normal camera on my s8 and then use the gallery option to edit it on Instagram . I hope it gets sorted!
This is awful, I've had the phone a few weeks and as soon as I used snapchat I noticed how close it seemed to my face, every single pore! What the hell is that about!
Its November now and you guys noticed it earlier in the year.. I'm guessing there is no fix
Did anyone noticed, that camera inside Viber (and I think the same problem with Snap in some other thread) is awful.
Standard camera (app) is nice, but if you start camera inside Viber (very similar with FB messenger) it's completely usefull.
Is there any solution for that? What is problem? Aspect ratio?

I just noticed the same with viber and all cameras... Whatsapp is ok with all three cameras.
I don't know any solution though
Guys i see viber and messenger takes pics with lowest mp thats why pics are ugly af idk how to fix it.
Hi all.
Am sure everyone would be facing the issue that whenever you use the front camera for video chatting on any app say like whatsapp, skype and others, then the front cam is always in wide angle mode and makes us look tiny.
Is there any workaround to get it back to the normal usual angle?
Please help, i am having lot of uneasiness because of this.
Best regards,
Thanks.
I believe it is due to the software. When you take it out of wide mode in the LG Camera app, it just crops it.

So we have no option to fix it ? We will have to continue to use it on other apps in wide angle mode only cause that is so by default? Damn LG.
I actualized this post because I have this problem. I have the wide angle in video call and this is in a very bad quality.
Do you know if there are a fix for this ?
Hi. My camera in video mode works in zoom by default, in photo mode everything goes well. This issue appears in stock rom and in xiaomi.eu rom on all camera apps (footej camera's zoom is the shortest one as far as i know). Had anyone the same problem ? No clue what's happening ... :crying::crying::crying:
I think everybody has this problem , i don't really know if it can be normal . Had this thing since i bought the phone .
Do you think that flashing different camera app could help ?

I've tried Open Camera and Footej Camera on the latest Global Beta rom and it shows zoomed in into the preview but when you press the record button it shows and records absolutely normal. Try with another camera and see if it's the same... I don't know what to say..
I think there is some EIS. That's why it is zoomed in. Using another camera will be the solution to your problem.
My instagram mode doesn't work properly, 3 weeks ago was fine but know every selfie or video that I take, when its transfered automatically to the instagram app, stretch the photo or video, persons looks stretched and elongated... Any thoughts what is causing this? Didn't find anything on Google
Sorry for my English
