Description

**Please note Halide is not free. We offer a 7-day free trial for annual memberships. Don't like subscriptions? You can also buy the app outright with a single in-app purchase.**

Halide is an Apple Design Award winning, acclaimed camera from the team behind Spectre, Apple's App of the Year of 2019.

Halide is the most powerful camera for iPhone with the most elegant, simple design — A pro camera for everyone.

This is a groundbreaking app for deliberate and thoughtful photography. With high-end tools, and a beautiful interface designed from scratch for the latest iPhones and inspired by the controls of professional cameras, Halide is your go-to camera when you want to really take a photo rather than a quick snapshot.

Use gestures in Halide to change exposure and manual focus with a swipe, or switch from its powerful automatic mode to manual shooting. Halide’s professional tools are the most powerful in the App Store, with XDR (Extended Dynamic Range) 14-bit RAW streaming waveform views, color zebras, focus assists like focus peaking and loupe, histograms, an adaptive level grid, and manual depth capture. 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.

Features:
- Beautiful, intuitive gesture-based interface, usable with one hand
- Take portraits of pets and objects on single-camera phones, like iPhone XR and iPhone SE
- Manual focus, and powerful tools like a Focus Loupe and Focus Peaking
- Smart automatic mode with Halide Smart RAW, optimizing settings with Machine Learning for RAW files with less noise and more detail
- Full manual exposure controls including shutter speed, ISO and white balance
- Best-on-iPhone exposure tools: histograms, XDR 14-bit RGB waveform, and color zebra stripes
- Captures RAW, TIFF, HEIC or JPG for the best quality shots
- Grid overlay with built-in level
- A powerful reviewer to view DNG, JPG, HEIC and Live Photos, as well as Portrait depth data and mattes, with a detailed metadata view - with batch export!
- Instant RAW development process to quickly develop your RAW files in a tap
- Technical Readout to view all details of your iPhone camera hardware
- Apple Watch companion app for remote shooting
- Siri Shortcuts support to trigger the shutter remotely, or open Halide in Auto or Manual mode
- Become a better photographer by signing up for comprehensive lessons like a 10-day quick tutorial right from the app.
- Private by Design: Halide does not include any trackers or tracking, has not third party libraries, does not collect data or photos, and never transmits any information. Halide also includes features to reduce spying by companies like Facebook by limiting location information on photos shared from the app.

Probably the best camera app for iPhone

Vincent SH on

A lot of thought has been put into this app and it shows. So much of the features that I’ve truly missed on the standard app are present in Halide, giving you better control over the results of your photography.

Dobbelt bilde

Håkon Bjerkstad on

Har i det siste veldig ofte opplevd at det legger deg seg flere bilder oppå hverandre, dette gjør bildene helt ubrukelige, gjerne er det et liggende og et stående bilde av samme motiv, i samme bilde.

Best raw app so far, but I miss..

ATEriksen on

I miss having long exposure like reeflex have with a couple options to reduce number of apps I have.. I also wish it had 360 sphere option now as Google left Streetview and option to braket and merge hdr manually to DNG.

Youre free updates to halide have ended

Eivor Kjellevold on

I bought this app and now for some reason i have to bye it again?

Simply the best dedicated photo app for iOS

SteamingT on

Missing a manual White Balance mode. Otherwise I love the app. Definitely worth the subscription price.

Insane expensive, not worth it…

BlåSmurf on

Lack of digital zoom an lack of opportunity to set exposure time longer than 9 seconds. Anyway, wouldn’t have payed more than 5 dollars for this, even with those features included.

Terrible, scammy first impressions

Syverlauritz on

The very first thing that meets you is a screen where you need to agree to a 7 day trial. In a tiny font it says that after the 7 day trial you will automatically be charged for a whole year. You can’t even test the app before agreeing to this. This is the kind of predatory practice you see in free-to-play games designed to scam your kids into emptying your wallet. Not something I expected from a so-called professional photo app. I’m happy to pay for a good photo app, but not with that first impression. Steer clear of this.

Photographer Review: Not Worth it

Wolfy_Norge on

As a devoted hobby photographer, I found the App, not worth the money: 1) Minimum shutter speed is 1/3 second only, which is a joke. 2) You have no control over the F number, it is fixed to the maximum aperture of your phone. 3) For a very narrow extra features that it provide, it is too expensive. 4) I could not see a huge difference in noise level when photos shot in low and high ISO compared. This could be because of camera sensor dynamic range.

Tricked into subscription

Bergen64 on

Do not install the app unless you have decided to subscribe for a year. The app triggers a one-year subscription, which cannot be cancelled in the App Store until one year has passed. In the meanwhile, you have to pay each month until the one-year period is over.

Great camera app
