DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I purchased the lifetime license only to find I wasted my money. This "Pro" camera boasts manual controls only to find the most important controls such as exposure settings like shutter, ISO and aperture are nowhere to be found. And when I try to turn on features in settings, the buttons work but the feature, such as histogram, are not viable. I sent feedback and messages to "support" without a response. NO, I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS APP. NO RESPONSE FROM SUPPORT

Hi Larry, sorry for your experience. Manual controls (ISO, shutter, exposure) depend on your device’s Camera2 API, and some devices like Chromebooks may not fully support them. The histogram is a Pro feature but also requires compatible hardware. Please contact us at ssolstice216@gmail.com so we can assist you.

really good camera app. the UI is very easy to use giving full control over the camera. pros: having used this app over 2 days at a historic house garden and a zoo. the app takes and processes vibrant photos that are full of colour with sharp subjects, flowers, buildings and animals. cons: photos can be either over or under exposed and take 2 or 3 pictures to correct. if you use an external lens like the 240mm by newer, it can cause the app to glitch and use the main lens instead of 5x zoom

update: works great! Switching between controls for different parameters is quick, and all parameters are clearly laid out. outdated (old version): I can't tell if it works, but the controls (for manual focus) block half the screen, so togehter with the ad only 1/3 of the screen is left to actually see the picture to aim and get the focus right. So it is mostly unuseable anyways.
