Obscura — Pro Camera

Looks really good but then you go on it and it makes you pay, there is an option for limited features but it basically means ‘you don’t pay you don’t get to use anything on our app that a basic camera can’t do’

All it does when opened is to try to get you to subscribe to paid services. It will not do anything unless you allow it to access all your photos, your location and your mic. Even though they show up as ‘suggested’.

This is a great, feature packed camera app with a lovely UI.

I was using the previous version and Obscura 4 has had a lot of thought put into it and is even better with it's rationalised button behaviour. Fully customisable from auto to full control with a beautiful interface that makes it fun to take photos and a level of developer response that you don't often see. May sound silly but I actually look forward to opening this app!

Best app on the site pictures are really sharp without even trying recommend to all

I don’t have need for a high end phone, but wanted manual control and some way of getting a DNG from phone camera. While impressed by the UI, the app regularly crashes under iOS 16, often when deleting files. This also happens occasionally while taking photos. This affects real world usability a lot. Modern, Native feeling & Customizable, Crashes too frequently.

Super App. Sensible pricing, always welcome in this age of the digital (human) hoovers [and] (their filthy) subscriptions of far-too-much! The app is very slick, has good controls, and ‘with practice’ (AND view the user guidance/videos) you can become really useful.

I love using Obscura. i am no photographer, but the tools and menus are easy to use and navigate and it helps me take better pictures. i love the filters too! they’re really good.

I've been using a couple of other camera apps on my iPhone and sort of forgot about Obscura. However since I just upgraded to a new iPhone 13 I decided to review other apps and rediscovered this one. I have to say that it seems more intuitive and easy to use and suits my way of working. With the updated lenses on the 13 I'm able to get some really sharp detailed colourful images with ease...I think this is now going to earn a place in my iPhone dock...👍
