WhatsApp update drops Google Digicam Social Share help 9to5Google

With the Pixel 4 in Oct of 2019, Google Camera added a handy feature that lets you rapidly share your previous image or online video to a different app. An update to WhatsApp for Android this 7 days stops the Fb-owned services from doing the job with Social Share in Google Digital camera.

Update 2/3: Version 2.21.2.18 of WhatsApp permits the application to reappear in Social Share. Alternatively, the new release (8.1.200.352609439) of Google Digicam — which lets you permanently flip off Car Night time Sight on the Pixel 5 and 4a 5G— also restores the shortcut. Each updates should really be rolling out and installing possibly will correct this concern.

First 1/23: After taking a picture in Google Digital camera, it promptly appears as a preview in the base-correct corner. Swiping up on that circle provides up a column of icons, and tapping on an application will begin the third-social gathering approach of sharing that impression.

Up to three consumer-selected programs can appear in that menu. A checklist appears in Google Digital camera settings to toggle on/off your wished-for share targets.

On Wednesday, edition 2.21.1.13 of WhatsApp for Android started out broadly rolling out (adhering to months of beta screening). Immediately after installing this release, WhatsApp wholly disappears from Social Share. It is no more time readily available from the pop-up or the preferences list. We’ve replicated this challenge on a Pixel 4a and Pixel 5 jogging variation 8.1 of Google Camera.

This is not an problem on Google’s side — considering the fact that the Digicam hasn’t witnessed an update not too long ago, but somewhat WhatsApp’s. The previous secure edition (2.20.206.24) of the chat app from December proceeds to aid the sharing shortcut. It is not obvious if this was just a bug on the part of the Facebook provider or an meant removal. Regardless, for customers that closely use Social Share, speaking to WhatsApp aid is the finest wager on how to get it back again.
