Chromatica camera

I had an iPhone X since launch, the camera wasn’t fantastic by today’s standards but it took decent enough pictures and they looked fairly natural. I recently upgraded to the iPhone 15, started taking pictures using the default camera app and they all just looked… very wrong. The so called smart processing was ruining the way things looked! Tried taking a photo of someone with Dark Brown hair, it ended up with them looking Ginger, and so on. Switching the default photographic style to “Cool” mode made things a little better, but no matter what settings I tweaked within the app the resulting photos didn’t come out right. Thankfully, I’d downloaded this forever ago and thought I’d give it a try in the hope it’d let me see if there was something wrong with the actual camera or the way photos were being processed. I took some photos using this and it was like I was using a completely different camera… The pictures are great, and the colours looked natural again! I don’t normally leave reviews, but wanted to for this to thank the developer(s) for basically saving the camera on my new phone for me!

Nice to have more control over the camera in my iPhone.took me a while to work out the dial for altering settings (it’s just below the settings options eg speed/aperture etc - as it’s quite dark in colour) This app is only 3.5mb!! That’s unbelievable in this day and age- well done!!

Made for photographers and unlike the ‘designers apps’ (Halide, Obscura) all photography related settings are visible and adjustable on the main screen. However, it seems like the copyright setting does not ‘stick’. Also, it would be great if the app saved the photos into a user configurable album and the font size was also configurable, or based on the system settings.

I have 3,000 photos. Seems I must go thru each one, one at a time, staring with photo #1, to find the one I wish to edit! I just gave up. Was I not seeing a simpler way????

Bug on 1.2.5. When you tap to view photos, it’s just a black screen with a black button. Photos are completely inaccessible

Hello. I downloaded this app for the Portrait Lighting feature but I’m dismayed for it doesn’t have it anymore. I think I’ll just get a refund for this purchase if possible and buy this again if Portrait Lighting will be available again. Btw, I’m using an iPhone 7+ that’s why. Thank you and God bless.

I want to two tell you how much I appreciate the design of this app when shooting DNG files! I have been involved with professional photography for years and the interface of this app is very intuitive and..., you did the right thing for real photographers by allowing us to have full control over our DNG files. Unlike a certain other company which makes it cumbersome and difficult to get the original DNG files off the phone and into a computer, you have done the right thing for the user with this app. I highly recommend this app for getting all the quality out of an iPhone that it is capable of producing, and without causing frustration with the user process.

The app is great but unfortunately I can’t use the portrait lighting effects on my iPhone 7 Plus anymore 😕. Rating 2 stars.

The UI should be improved, the place which used to slide to adjust some options is to small, I can easily touch the shoot button by mistake. And I think the fluency can be improved as well.

I tested ISO settings by itself as priority on my iPad 3rd generation and on my canon Powershot 540. On canon, clarity with ISO of 100 vs 400 makes huge quality difference. No noise seen at 100 and at 400, typical noise expected was seen. I had ISO set as priority in the app. On Ipad 3rd generation using this app, the ISO of 100 looked no different than ISO 400 when I set the app to have ISO as priority. If ISO was truly priority, I should have had less granular look with ISO 100 than 400 as I experienced with the Canon Powershot. Therefore, buyer beware as you won’t get same behavior like one would expect with ISO values being lowered on a picture.
