Manual – RAW Camera is paid iOS app published by William Wilkinson
Simple and advanced
David Levine
Manual is the best of both worlds. It's simple to use and can take great photos by keeping everything set to auto. On the flip side, you can take complete control over your photos and fine tune all sorts of settings to your liking. Being able to have control over which camera lens the iPhone 7 Plus takes the picture with is awesome.
Out of focus RAW
maykel2002
I took jpeg pictures and works excellent, when I change to RAW all the pictures are out of focus, if I took RAW + jpeg, those jpeg are good, but RAW are out of focus , no matter if I use manual or automatic always is the same result.
Absolutely Horrible Raw Image Quality
Lewisp12321
This app does not take quality raw images and the JPG images it takes are even less pixelated then the raw image. When taking just a picture in raw mode, it comes out pixelated and blurry. This is with an iPhone 7Plus. The normal camera app that comes standard with the iPhone blows this one away. Do not waste or money.
Raw is blurry!
Kingdave1984
Same issue as other users. Jpeg looks fine but RAW is extremely blurry. The interface looks smooth but this app is rendered useless with the quality
Really Good

The app is really good and contains many DSLR like features. The only improvement that I would love is the ability to select shutter time more than "3 like 10 or 20 secs.
Simple, Intuitive, Powerful!

App Store is full of camera apps for iPhone offering full control over settings like exposure, focus, ISO and shutter speed. And while these kinds of apps aren’t always necessary, a great one is a good tool to have in your app arsenal. Manual is fairly easy to use for those who have the desire and patience to actually control the photographs they take with their phones. It doesn't hide behind "freemium" veneer and the interface is intuitive. There's zero setup for Manual. Upon first launch, a quick tutorial walks you through how to adjust ISO and shutter speed, or activate automatic mode. You can also check out histograms live, all in a beautifully designed and easy to use package. Manual gives you total control over your photos' exposure, and with the arrival of iOS10, it can now shoot raw DNG photos. It automatically saved both DNG and JPG formats to the camera roll. You can get great images straight from the iPhone's stock Camera or the Manual app, but if you're interested in using your iPhone for more pro-level photography experiments, Manual saves the RAW format as well for more advanced editing. Some people are complaining about the quality of the RAW image. Please note that it doesn't look good in the Photos app, but when you open the DNG file in a compatible app, such as Lightroom or Photoshop, you will get the high-quality RAW image with the advanced editing options on the screen.
Great but not perfect
Datminer69
This has amazing features but it's missing two key features imo, hdr/hdr+, and video recording functionally, if those get added this will easily be a 5, also the focus seems backwards, if you swipe down to the flower it's actually selecting the mountain which is in the opposite direction.
RAW does not work
aotero
Bought this app just to shoot raw but the files it produces are awful. JPGs look fine but the RAW file is blurry / very low quality. Kind of defeats the purpose right?
Potential
HartleysTechCircle
This app has great potential. All the tools you would need to take control on your iPhone 7 camera. However, I have notice Raw images are very low quality. Raw images are supposed to be unedited images straight from the sensor with no post processing, but with this app the images becomes worse. I'm not sure if it's just the app can't DMG files. Hopefully they fix this soon.
Blurry raw file
Mike3786328378
Got this specifically for the RAW file support. As others have commented, the raw file is pixelated and useless. This app was highly rated in several articles, looks like the price doubled in the last few months as well. Even if the RAW feature worked, it doesn't have editing capabilities and is vastly overpriced.
