The tutorial completely takes over when you first launch the app, is confusing, and you can’t quit it. Terrible design.

Bought it on day 1 of its release on the App Store, and it has been on every iPhone I’ve owned since. It’s use declined a bit as I started using LR but I still use manual from time to time. While it’s simple but powerful I do however feel it’s UI was more intuitive back in the day. In more recent updates it seems the iso and shutter speed are a bit more less than intuitive to use than earlier days and pinpointing a specific setting can be difficult as swiping back and forth they move quickly. I do hope the developers address this but it doesn’t break the app.

This all let’s you fiddle with shutter speed, ISO, focus and make some Exposure Compensation adjustments, but there is no aperture control, so it’s basically useless. Also, the sensitivity of controls is such that you will spend ages trying to dial-in any settings. So if you want to spend your time messing with your phone instead of taking pictures, spend money here. Otherwise, get a fully manual camera.

Not sure what changed, but feels less intuitive from a UI perspective than in the past. Biggest problem is that I cannot figure out how to get a full viewfinder. It seems permanently cropped, which means you cannot take precise photos. For me, that defeats a key function of the app.

I was looking for an application that would allow manual operation of the camera similar to my DSLR. I found this app to have very few features that actually allowed for manual operation. In addition to that this camera app lags severely behind when there is any movement. Overall this has been a waste of $4. Wouldn’t recommend this to anyone.

Purchased for the Dng/Raw controls are unstable spend more time trying to get the setting right because it goes back to auto used on iPhone X and 11pro max waste of money

Drums are shiny and make great point light sources for cameras to focus on, so they do. With manual focus, iso, and shutter, I get expressions on properly exposed faces of whomever I choose.

It should never, ever, ever assume I want auto anything or pop up stupid prompts saying “tap to auto...”. If I wanted auto I’d use the stock camera app.

Please take back color temperature. It’s very important to any serious photographer.

It doesn’t seem to have half the settings it said it did. I was buying it for the aperture for 4 dollars and it wasn’t even there. And then the ones that were there were so frustrating to use.
