That would be in your phone main settings I guess, and specific to your device? In no Android stock or custom ROM I've used have I seen a "photos button (bottom right)".

To be clear, here's a screenshot. I'm on a Pixel 5 running Android 11. I checked the default apps page in settings but there's not an option for photos unfortunately.

If you uninstall (or disable) Google Photos, that button should ask what app you want to open.

When I tried that the button takes a photo and asks me where to save the JPG. But then when I select a folder it errs saying the image doesn't exist.

I guess I'll stick with the stock camera app
