Android 16 will introduce a new Night Mode Indicator API that will let apps know when the device is in a low light environment.
This will let social/camera apps know when they should use the Night Mode Camera Extension available on some devices.
The API will provide 3 possible values:
UNKNOWN
The camera is unable to reliably detect the lighting conditions of the current scene to determine if a photo will benefit from a Night Mode Camera Extension capture.
OFF
The camera has detected lighting conditions that are sufficiently bright. Night Mode Camera Extension is available but may not be able to optimize the camera settings to take a higher quality photo.
ON
The camera has detected low-light conditions. It is recommended to use Night Mode Camera Extension to optimize the camera settings to take a high-quality photo in the dark.

Google says there are already over "120 different devices" that support Camera Extensions, representing "over 75 million monthly active users." Instagram, for example, uses the Night Mode Extension on the Pixel 6 and later, the Galaxy Flip6 and Fold6, and more.

It's common with LOS to release userdebug but not universal.
It would be better for security if they did not release debug builds but they do it to make it easier to get things like log data from users and esp in the past old binary blobs necessary to get devices to work did not support secure SElinux mode and such.
But for an example of the problem with this: a couple of years ago microG released a buggy build that was leaking Google credentials into the system log in cleartext, but those were only visible to the regular user on debug builds, not user builds.

Is it possible to provide `user` builds instead of `userdebug`? (#1402) · Issues · e / Backlog · GitLab
