Customize controls to adapt the app to your needs.
Halide’s ProRAW support* is unmatched. Strike the right balance between file size and editing latitude by choosing between 12-bit and 10-bit ProRAW, with or without JPEG sidecars. Effortlessly switch to native RAW, for greater detail and speed.

My go to camera app
Strongly recommend this app.. takes high quality raw images and has very good UI for anyone to play around and learn..
the whole is 5/5 but I do wish halide to add long exposure mode (night mode) type mode with halide magic to the app.. that’d would be “insanely great”.. gives lot of controls for an average user to play around and know lot about his/her camera sensor could do in different lighting conditions..
Also being able to natively shoot in different crop modes or would love to see 2.75:1 style pano mode like the xpan mode would be really lovely..
Stupid app. No support for 48MP iPhone 15 cam.
Useless app
It shows that it has support for 48MP but you can’t click 48MP photos.
Changed the terms and conditions also and pushing you to pay subscriptions even after you have paid for the app already.
Cheapsters and useless app.
Unusable
It directly asks for money not even a preview, go for lightroom, this app is waste of time and money
Going to complaint Apple Store
How’s this app blocking the all the features and forcing the users to pay first.
One time purchase
Option is make a one time purchase is not showing in the app. Please help
App crashed
My iPhone 13 crashed when clicking pics on 2x zoom
Not support raw 48 mp on iPhone 15 plus
It would have been great if they mention it in the description of the app!
It is not showing I have already paid
I paid for this app but still showing I didn’t .
iPhone 15 Clicking a picture with 2x and Raw+ on force closes the app
Hii I am using Iphone 15 base model. While I am trying to click a photo with 2x it clicks the picture with no issues but while Raw+ is turned on it just doesn’t work and closes everytime.
Exceptional app
Must have app for any serious iPhone photographers!!
