Installed pixel camera to get the additional functionality compared to grapheneos camera.

Worked fine yesterday when setting it up. Allowed position services to get GPS tags ("allow only when using the app"). Today however I don't get any GPS data in my photos.

Recent access says several hours ago for the pixel camera for location services. Restarted phone, removed and re-added position privileges and walked around a bit with the camera app open but no position in photos.

Position works fine for map application.

It feels like the pixel camera app just doesn't want to fetch position data.

Anyone who has any idea on whats the issue?

Ok, so a follow up.

Now its started to tag with location data again.
Getting the "green bubble for location services" in the top right corner when opening the camera app.

So it seems to be an intermittent issue where it doesn't get/request location data on app start sometimes.

Ah, sounds reasonable! Thank you!
