## AstroShader Description
AstroShader is an astrophotography app for capturing, stacking and editing. All you need is a stand, tripod, telescope or rock (to lean your phone on).

AstroShader lets you align and stack live during the image capture process. You can also align and stack images from you Photos library. No need to transfer images to a computer to align and stack them separately (but there is a built in intervalometer if you do need it).

To take an image follow these steps:
 • Use a stand, tripod, telescope mount (or lean your iPhone on a rock).
 • Zoom in on stars and set focus manually.
 • Set the exposure time, ISO and white balance.
 • Set the number of exposures to be automatically aligned and stacked.
 • Calibrate your images from the edit tools.
 • After the capture is complete you can edit and save your image—including as 16bit TIFF.
 • You can open images directly to use the edit tools in AstroShader - rather following a new image capture.

Image capture options include:
 • Number of exposures to be aligned and stacked
 • Exposure time
 • ISO
 • White balance
 • Camera type
 • Countdown timer
 • Manual focus
 • Pause the capture to reposition iPhone or telescope

Edit options include:
 • Stretch image
 • Background extraction
 • x5 Histogram curves for fine tonal adjustment
 • x3 sharpen layers each with radius and intensity with layer blending rather than chaining
 • Brightness (low light enhancement)
 • Saturation
 • Black point
 • Temperature
 • Tint
 • Save format options; HEIF, PNG, JPEG, TIFF

## AstroShader Reviews in United Kingdom

### *---- "Ceased to work"
I’ve just updated the latest version on my iPhone 16PM today. Unfortunately still doesn’t work. Automatically crashes as soon as you open it.
-- SabPed86, 2025-01-25

### *---- "Crashes every time"
This in theory would be exactly the app I would want for stacking photos when using my telescope. However I am yet to capture a single image as it crashes every single time. Sometimes it gets to around 80% complete during the capture process, sometimes as little as 10%, but without fail it crashes out before finalising the image. It even crashes when tapping the ‘finalise’ button to manually end the process early. Just doesn’t work.
-- Stu-pie, 2025-01-03

### ***** "Basic but really useful"
There is no doubting the apps capabilities are basic. But to be fair the finished product if you take your time is actually quite good.

Yes there is noise you could do without, but I find that is more if I make the picture to large.

All in all for a free app, it’s is great for practicing on before buying more expensive software.

I’m not giving it 5 stars because it is amazing, but because it is free, it does what it says and actually for armatures, it’s ideal as a starting point.
