@Demetri Reported here too:

/t5/Xperia-XZs/Timeshift-removed-after-update-to-Android-7/m-p/1222326#M170

This is what we have:

Starting from Xperia™ XZs, the Add button is no longer available in the camera's CAMERA APPS mode. The reason for removing the feature is that the Camera Add-on API project is no longer being supported and will not get any further updates. This means that no new camera apps will be made available on Google Play™.

Hi, 

Thanks very much, I was able to add the background defocus app to the camera by installing it from the Play store. 

Does that mean the timeshift burst is not available on the phone? 

Thanks

@Demetri Correct, not supported.

I'm not a 100% sure about this, and I will look it up, but I guess this is due to the new Predictive Capture functionality. When the camera sensor detects movement it starts buffering images and captures four photos from one second before you click. So the camera basically automatically detects when a Timeburst photo is needed. Kind of neat if you ask me! :smileysmileywink:
