I've heard that gcam is just better than all the stock apps on android phones. I have MIUI stock camera and I hate it, at least on my phone, it feels like "laggy" and just doesn't work well.
As it is not on the play store (at least in Spain, where I live) is ther any way to install it? Maybe something like a port to other android devices as I thinks the gcam app only works on Pixel Phones.
Last of all, no, I don't want to go install the pixel experience custom rom as I already have a lot of things in my phone and don't want to lose my things. Though I will definitely if I ever get a new phone.

Side load it by picking a porter of your choice and downloading it

Not going to go through the talk of why one mod over another depending on phone because the answer is, it depends, on a lot of variables.

Well, I've actually installed it it is DEFINITELY WAY BETTER than stock. Better color processing, better shadows and overall quality is just amazing. I thi k it's due to this image processing called HDR and AWB.
Definitely was worth it.
STOCK
GCAM

Yes it does. But gcam's photos are still so much better. I have no idea why
