## iLightningCam 2 Lite Description
iLightningCam 2 - The Second Generation - Real-time lightning photography with iPhone made easy.

It enables everyone to take spectacular pictures of real lighting strikes with an iPhone or iPad!

This is the free Lite version of iLightningCam 2! 
It offers all features of the full app, but pictures can only be saved with low quality (640x480 - 0,3 MP).
For full resolution please buy our complete new iLightningCam 2!

After three years of development, iLightningCam 2 follows the unique iLightningCam, which was the only app with ISO control since 2012 with more than 160 000 users.


iLightningCam 2 features:

- Full AUTO Mode!
No user input needed!
The app changes automatically between day and night mode
Continuous calculation of best ISO settings based on the last
strikes

- Original Photo Resolution, no tricks, no interpolation!

- Much better detection!

- Double-shot , + one image as blend of first and second shot!

- New modern design!

- For experts: ISO ranges are fully manually adjustable, if wished!


iLightningCam 2 uses true real-time recognition of lightning strikes. Once recognized, your iPhone takes a picture of the recognized lightning in up to 8MP. And yes - your iPhone or iPad is fast enough!
You only need a good view on a real thunderstorm.

The app works free hand. Just point your iPhone towards the scene/part of the sky/thunderstorm where you expect the next lightning, start the iLightningCam 2 and wait, the app will automatically press the trigger if a lightning is detected in your view.


Warning:
Lightning storms are life threatening for you and your phone!!! Take care using this app! Do not take any risks and avoid exposure to thunderstorms! Use this app only in lightning and storm protected places. You are solely responsible for your actions and adverse consequences. Read full safety warning in the instructions page, before using this app.
Who is it not for: It is not for children and it is not for mentally handicapped persons, as they may have not the ability to protect themselves against lightning or the associated storm.

## iLightningCam 2 Lite Reviews in United States

### ***-- "Why"
This app creates three identical copies of one capture each time it detects lightning to make it seem like it’s catching more than it is, other than that it gets the job done and catches lightning so can’t complain too much
-- Skakdbdojnwksodntb, 2025-05-19

### *---- "Not good"
In the past I’ve had good results.  I now have the iPhone 14Pro.  We had a huge lightning storm last night and I got a thousand pictures of nothing.  Very disappointing to say the least.
-- Bemidji3, 2023-04-20

### ***-- "Meh, timing was a little late"
I used this on “auto” mode where it triggers by itself. Problem was by the time the shutter opened, the big visible lightning bolt had dissipated so all I kept getting was a background glow in the sky. 

Also, kind of a funny side effect with this app on iPhone XS (without the home button) is when I’d swipe up to go to home screen, it kept thinking I was changing one of the menus. Was hard to quit out of! Haha.

Anyway as for capturing lightning, I had better results with a long exposure app.
-- bschendel, 2020-08-15

### *---- "Didn’t work"
Using iPhone 11 Pro. Phone was on tripod. Lightning triggered shutter but always seemed too late and never captured it. 

App needs an update.
-- Adam Alf, 2020-07-23

### ***** "Amazing!"
I'm running this on a 4.5 year old iPhone 4s. The pictures I get are fantastic. Wow.
-- Lizziebeth10, 2017-07-01

### ***** "Love it"
I use both versions of the app the original and the second Version
They both work very well
Have gotten some phenomenal lightning photos. Not disappointed that's for sure. If you don't have this app you need to try it for the new user will take a little getting used to but it's worth it
-- Topthrill420, 2015-08-08

### *---- "Puzzled"
Tried the camera and ended up with 4 pictures that I don't know how they got there. There is no visible tap button on screen and it's impossible to get the pic you want when you don't know where the button is. Please add visible tap button on the screen.
-- Cdfjn, 2015-07-20

### ***** "Love love love this app"
it is so cool to get good pic of lighting I want the full thing now too bad I don't got enough r money it would be perfect to get the full app definitely a keeper
-- Teg1996gonzalez, 2015-06-16

### ***** "Best ever"
Best app I have ever seen it really works! I wanna rate this 5,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 STARS
-- AwesomeGamer224, 2014-08-30

### ***** "Balls"
I have a big pinga.
-- danchacon, 2013-09-15
