Fantastic app
Topthrill420

Easy to use. Has multiple settings automatic and manual mods. With this app I have been able to take some absolutely fantastic lightning photos, and might I add a couple have been used on the local news station. After years and years of role after role of wasted film with very little success this app truly amazes me Thanks lightning cam


Garbage

The original app took great pictures, all I get with this one is bright horizontal lines.


oh well
azvettegirl013

Doesn’t work…tried to email, but no answer. Said I needed to upgrade. Been there, done that. Oh well.


I absolutely love this app! I've captured amazing lightning pics with this app!

It's incredible how this app makes it possible to capture beautiful, clear shots of lightning! One of my lighting photos was actually shown on a local news channel as their "amazing pic of the day"! Everyone thought that I had used an expensive professional DSLR camera and couldn't believe that I used my iPhone to take the pic. I highly recommend this app, it's the best!


Quite a bit better than the first version

It performed well during a thunderstorm today.


I got dramatic lightning photos

Worked the settings, used a tripod and got dramatic lightning photos.


Does a great job!

I get absolutely astonishing pictures with this app, and I haven't even needed to try tweaking anything from the default settings. I set my phone up on a tripod with a camera mount, leave it pointed in the right direction, and the app does the rest.


A must have
Liveeyephoto

If you are a photographer and you like lightning this is the app to have. I have been using this app for years to capture night time lightning and daytime lightning and this app works so well for both. It's very simple to use and it's easy enough for anyone to use. Worth every penny


Perfect timing!

The app update popped up during a thunderstorm! Great app anyways, with 5 stars for perfect timing!


Works great!

When it starts lightning, I fire up this app and I always end up with some very interesting shots. A must have app for a Kansan like myself. Thanks!
