[SOLVED] (On Android) Game camera view is extremely pixelated

Unity Engine
1

So I was trying to create a 2d game with pixelated graphics but while on the editor it looks fine and all the pixel arts scale correclty, even at different reslutions; on an android device, the view is extremely pixelated as if it was rendering at a very small resolution as seen in the screenshot. I have also attached 2 screenshot, one of my camera settings, and the other of the canvas settings. I’m not using a pixel perfect camera because even with that the view looks the same way. I have also checked if all my art had no compression and no filtering and attached their import settings. Thx for any help.

Found a fix to it: under Player Settings for Android I went to Resolution and Presentation and I increased the target DPI level (from 30 to 200) and this fixed the low res rendering problem. I have also uncheked from the “game tab”, under the resolution dropdown menu, the option “Low Resolution Apsect Ratios”.
Please also note that while increasing the DPI will give you a significant improve in graphics, this will also hurt the framerate and create a bigger app.
Hope this will help someone.
