Controls for this “manual” camera operation are very difficult and slow to use.

I used to RECOMMEND this app constantly to friends and customers. But now, after months and months of being useless the latest update still doesn't address the apps biggest issues. It's SLOW, stuttery when switching between options and takes forever or freezes when reviewing your shots. It's utterly unusable at the point and I'm done with it. I don't understand how I could be on a 6S Plus and have all of this amazing technology come to a crawl in this basic app. Jeesh,... I really miss what it used to be. This was my go-to and most recommended for so long. Time to move on I guess.

Having tried many photo apps - this is the one for me. 1- total control over iso and shutter speed 2- auto focus or manual focus 3- intuitive and easy to use. This app turns my iPhone6s into a real camera!

This app makes a good start, but it has some remaining challenges. First, it has a clumsy interface when setting ISO and shutter speeds. Second, its ISO tops out at 1500 instead of 2000 offered by other apps. And most importantly, what you set is not what you get: For example, when you set for ISO 1500 at 1/2 sec., EXIF data shows that it actually shoots at ISO 500 at 1/4 sec., rending the app pretty much useless (and your photo hopelessly dark). Hopefully the developers will continue to work on this, in the meantime I recommend you look at some of the other alternatives available.

The focus feature is hard to use and the app is a lot too busy, besides that it's a pretty decent tool

I needed manual control over exposure and white balance and this app seemed to fit the bill. Specifically, I was doing experiments with extreme exposure settings, some underexposed shots. However, every time I took a picture this app would override my settings to make the picture look "pretty" and well exposed. This is not what I needed and this is not what was advertised. I ended up getting a different app that actually lets you take manual control of the camera.

I could only save low resolution (852 x 640) JPGs instead of the DNG format!

Had high hopes for this app! Photos don't seem to turn out great, usually seem to be poor quality. Hoping it's user error and I'll figure out the bugs but at the moment I'm not too impressed.. Will update review as necessary.

I couldn't wait for iOS 10 to give us RAW support. This is only available through third-party apps. I tried using the Lightroom camera but there is no volume trigger, few manual controls and the sync took forever. Plus it doesn't store photos in your regular photo library. I haven't figured out the best workflow yet for this new capability. The photos app on the mac will sync these RAW photos but as a previous reviewer noted, it only shows you a small jpg preview until you go to edit the photo. Then you get the full resolution RAW photo to work with. Since Manual stores photos on your phones photo library , you could also plug your phone in and import the photos to Lightroom or another editor. The only feature I'd like to see in the future is a way to lock the shutter speed but have the ISO in auto mode. I run into the problem of taking high motion photos and would love to set a high shutter speed but let the ISO change automatically. Overall this is great!
