Pixelated camera

[Mattis142]

What

The image is simply pixelated, it's not an Autofocus thing like other people have, it's just completely pixelated

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Well it just kinda happened upon installation and hasn't been going away so far 😅

Expected behavior

A clear image that the app can actually scan from

Screenshot

Smartphone model

• Device: OnePlus 7Pro
• OS: Android 13 (custom ROM, I know you can't guarantee compatibility with that but no other app ever had this issue so idk)
• App Version: 4.3.0

Heyy @MKCOOL142 that is sad to hear. Sadly, we don't have much impact on the low level camera implementation, we use the official flutter camera package (https://pub.dev/packages/camera). You could create an issue in there (I think all issues are tracked in the main repository)

@M123-dev Are you aware of any testing tools ECT. i could use to debug this or at least be certain that it's caused by flutter?

@MKCOOL142 @M123-dev Actually I'm currently developing a new barcode scanner based on native methods. No "flutter camera" involved.

[M123-dev]

If you have flutter installed, you could try the official example app

https://github.com/flutter/plugins/tree/main/packages/camera/camera/example

If not, I can build the APK for you

I mean I could try to get it working but I'm not that experienced with android studio so if you want to do that it'd probably make more sense

[M123-dev]

app-release.zip

this should work

[Mattis142]

Thanks, it appears to be the exact same issue tho

@MKCOOL142 Just checking: in the OP the screenshot is taken from the barcode scan, right?
Do you experience bad display only for barcode scan, of also if you take a picture for a product (e.g. "ingredients")?
In a near future we'll probably get rid of flutter implementations of camera and use native code instead, either for barcode scan (I'm coding that) or for taking pictures (already done by image_picker I guess).

[Mattis142]

Only the barcode scanner scan, adding ingredients opens my camera app and is therefore unaffected

Thank you for your answer @MKCOOL142! It confirms my analysis.
A solution would be to use a native barcode scanner, which I'm currently integrating in the app.
