Burst shooting
Been trying the app for a few days now, much better than stock iPhone camera app. But…. One thing seems to be missing and that’s burst shooting mode. Is that an upcoming upgrade or am i not finding that option with this app. Would like the ability to use burst with the faster shutter speed ability.
Obscura 3?
Just saw the App telling me to update to Obscura 3, but the link takes me to Obscura 4.
Where do I get ver 3?
One of my favourite iPhone camera apps
I really like the (as far as I know) unique way this app allows the user to precisely adjust the focus, shutter speed, ISO or colour temperature with a single tap and swipe action. Apple should adapt a similar methodology for some of its apps. One feature request: please add a variable zoom function to the “pro” mode.
Great camera app
The newest update makes it way more user friendly and it is now my camera app of choice.
Beautiful design
This app is a joy to use.
None of the settings save.
Camera seems alright so far, but its annoying AF to have to go into setting every time you open the camera to turn on histogram, level, and grid. I can’t find the setting that would let you save it for every tine you open the camera. You'd think by default however you set your interface, is what it would open up as for each mode provided: photo, film, pro, etc. Please save settings or give a profile for each mode you can save your preferred settings to so you don’t have to waste your time going back to the settings to enable everything.
Update: every time you switch modes, in the app: switching from photo to pro and back again, the settings you had set for both modes do not stay.
No iPad App.
Pretty good app, the only downside is that it doesn’t have its dedicated iPad app.
Meh
Takes great pics when app actually stays open. After ios16 it just closes after you take a pic. No reset helps. Wasted money.
Outstanding App
Not only does this app elevate your iPhone camera to a new level, the customer support is stellar. I had a pretty quick question and I got an extremely quick response. And then even quick responses to my follow up questions.
Highly recommended.
