The hype is over. Thirty-one seconds of slick video and a million guesses later, and we now know what CyanogenMod's "Nemesis" project was all about. Meet "Focal," the open-source CyanogenMod project's own camera app. This actually is kind of a big deal given that camera apps are traditionally closed-source due to licensing reasons. And, in fact, it was only in March 2013 when DxO Labs filed DMCA violations with GitHub against a number of custom ROMs — including CyanogenMod — for allegedly using its code unlicensed. And now there's CyanogenMod Focal.

Focal's a pretty simple camera app to get a handle on, even in its unreleased early builds. Drag out from the shutter button get change between the five major modes. They include: Verizon is offering the Pixel 4a for just $10/mo on new Unlimited lines Photo: For taking normal still pictures

For taking normal still pictures Panorama: You know what that is.

You know what that is. Video: You know what that is, too.

You know what that is, too. PicSphere: CM's take on Google's Photosphere and LG's VR Panorama. It's got the same idea — you spin around and take pictures, only this one requires you to manually hit the shutter button for each frame. Dots are laid out to guide you through the full 360 degrees.

CM's take on Google's Photosphere and LG's VR Panorama. It's got the same idea — you spin around and take pictures, only this one requires you to manually hit the shutter button for each frame. Dots are laid out to guide you through the full 360 degrees. And finally: A button to switch from the rear camera to the front-facing camera. For selfies. Because you love selfies.

But what about all those options down on the bottom of the screen? You slide out from that edge — this works in portrait and landscape modes — to get to all the icons. They're being referred to as widgets, and they work in much the same way, too. Touch one, and it expands on the screen and can be dragged around and reordered however you want. From left, the widgets are: Flash mode

White balance

Scene mode

HDR

Color effects — filters, really

Exposure compensation

Color enhancements

ISO sensitivity

Burst mode

Time mode
