Your Google Pixel Watch is now a much better remote control for your phone's camera

Google is updating the Camera app on Pixel Watch, giving users the ability to, on their paired Google Pixel phone, jump between photo and video modes on the fly.

The company made no effort to inform people about the patch as a formal announcement was never made. Even the official help page on Google's support website doesn't mention anything. We only found out about this after 9To5Google discovered it. According to their report, users can access the new Modes section by first opening the Settings menu. By tapping the submenu you will be able to see what it contains now. In total, there are six individual states ready to be activated at any time.
