What happened to the webcam-over-USB feature that was promised? Just updated to 14 and went into charge-settings but no webcam option. Tried two USB-cables and both mac and Windows but no go. Was this confirmed to be scrapped? Was my most hyped feature π

It's listed on their official update video so it does exist. But it says "on compatible devices and countries" so might only be on the newest phones so far?
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
I'm on Pixel 6a so not ancient... Seems like it will release in another update before year end so here's hoping π
It's in the next QPR update.
Thx, then I'll just have to wait a bit longer.
Didn't expect a lot out of A14 tbh. I think that Operating Systems have matured to become mostly an intermediary between the user and apps as opposed to the conductor. As long as they stay out of the way, most users will be content.
Personally tho, I wouldn't be surprised if 15 is a huge release. Right now, the next frontier seems to obviously be transitioning phones towards AI personal assistants and w/ full integration. Microsoft is already leading the charge from the desktop OS front, but phones imo will be the most familiar integration opportunity.
Huh, the update is going out to 4a 5G but not the 4G version... Is my phone already depreciated?
