The feature is rolling out now and phones with Android Go should receive it in the form of an over-the-air (OTA) update.

Night mode on Camera Go works by using burst photography to capture multiple simultaneous images and merging them together to create a bright and sharp image.
Juho Sarvikas, chief product officer at Nokia-licensee HMD Global, tweeted that Nokia 1.3 will be getting night mode with Camera Go. Nokia 1.3 may be the first phone running Android Go to get this feature. As of now, it is unclear by when Nokia 1.3 users will be able to experience a dedicated night mode. Other Nokia phones with Android Go will also be receiving this feature but a timeline has not been shared yet.
Along with Nokia phones, other smartphones running Android Go will be getting night mode as well. As of now, it is available for Nokia 1.3, Wiko Y61, and Wiko Y81.
