Turn your phone into a telescope.
Telescope Camera gives you a smooth zoom dial that goes from 1x all the way to 100x. Point it at the Moon, a bird in a treetop, a far-off tower or the last light on the hills, and bring it close.
ZOOM DIAL UP TO 100X
Turn the dial to zoom in fine steps. Your phone's lens does as much of the work as it can, and extended zoom takes you the rest of the way. The preview matches the saved photo exactly, so what you frame is what you get.
PHOTO AND VIDEO
Switch between photo and video with one tap. Record in up to 4K on phones that support it, or pick 1080p or 720p to save space.
MANUAL CONTROLS
• Exposure dial to brighten a dim sky or tame a bright Moon
• Shutter speed dial, or double-tap for automatic
• Live ISO and focal length readout
• Flash: off, auto, on or torch
• Self-timer so you don't shake the phone when you tap
• Guides: rule of thirds or a telescope-style reticle
STEADY SHOTS AT HIGH ZOOM
Take photos with the volume keys so your hands stay still. Rest the phone on a wall or a railing and you'll get noticeably sharper shots.
YOUR CAPTURES
Every photo and video you take is kept in one simple gallery. Pinch to look closer, play videos with 10-second skip, see when each shot was taken and at what zoom, then share or delete.
EVENING SKY REMINDER
Turn on a gentle nudge at 6:30 pm on days you haven't been out shooting. It's off unless you want it.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your photos stay on your phone. There's no account and no sign-up, and you don't need a connection to take pictures.
Good for:
• Moon and night sky photos
• Birdwatching and wildlife
• City skylines, towers and landmarks
• Concerts, stadiums and sports from the stands
• Reading signs and details far away
Note: at high zoom levels the image is enlarged digitally beyond your phone's lens, so detail depends on your camera. For the best results, use good light and keep the phone steady.
