My camera on my Galaxy S7 was pretty good at one time. It had options like white balance accessible via a "pro" setting, but then disappeared after an update. So I'm looking to replace the phone app. I rarely use my phone camera for anything I care about, but sometimes I want to use it and want the pictures to look how I want. Recommend your favorite Android phone app?

You might be able to download and install an APK for the Samsung Camera version you liked, from a safe and reliable site. (I always recommend installing a real-time malware scanner - currently BitDefender Free - for "sideloading" any app outside Google's Play Store.) I've used this site without problems:

Other good legal download sites - Android Drawer, APK Mirror, etc. - may have older versions yet.

I've never owned a Samsung, app compatibility and their user interfaces vary wildly - so reluctant to recommend. My favorite apps on different devices have been Snap Camera HDR and Camera FV-5 (both paid). Open Camera (or spin-off HedgeCam 2 with some extras).

I recently installed a Google Camera (GCam) Port for my latest phone and quite like it - there may be others but this lists for the S7:
