Taking photos while recording with HDR enabled is now fixed with the Pixel 10 Pro XL. It is still broken (the take photo button is missing) on the Pixel 9 Pro XL

The motivation was pretty simple: every time I traveled, I found myself juggling multiple apps — one for notes, one for tickets, one for maps, and then some random doc or spreadsheet for the actual plan.
