Important:

Ratings and reviews

The app was nice for the time it was released, still working... but an update will be appreciated. There are features missing that other cameras are using... like zoom in and then manually focus in one movement, one touch move up zoom, move left after that to activate manual focus, up/down to adjust... all in one movement without removing the finger from that single tap.

Shutter speed is amazingly fast and it does let you use the auto focus for macro which was an issue I had with about 10 other programs not doing. Some of the features are clumsy like when you go to manual focus it always starts with infinity. It needs an update but it's a great program

I was apprehensive to buy this app based on the reviews. Thankfully, I bought it anyway! I'm not sure why this app isn't rated higher. As an amateur photographer, the things I missed most with my phone camera were the manual settings. Now I have complete control. I'm using the Pixel 3, and all the functions work amazing, f-stop, ISO and manual focus. It's almost like having my Digital SLR in my pocket!
