Amazing monochrome camera needs work
The B&W rendering is amazing. All I want to use and would be happy to pay a few $ for is the camera. But on my iPhone 14pro the framing fills the entire screen and I barely can see the shutter button. The please update!Scooter-IT Debit
A B/W Photography App with Personality
I can not easily express how much I love this app. It reignited my dying love for digital photography and is the best thing on my iPhone.
This is not the most fully featured or easiest to use camera app. It lacks many commonly expected features—e.g. volume shutter, video, color, independent exposure and focus control, zoom / access to the second and third lenses, a timer. It is idiosyncratic in its design and has a definite learning curve.
For me, none of this detracts from it. For starters, it makes taking really beautiful b/w photos fun and easy. Beyond that, it is wonderful in unquantifiable ways. It has a distinct character the way a well crafted physical object like an old fixed lens film camera might have. It has amazing features like being able to test out color filters and film grain textures before even taking the shot. It has a great design aesthetic. It has limitations and those limitations make it beautiful.
So many of our digital experiences these days have the frictionless un-designed sameness of an airport. I suppose that’s fine and good for a ride share app or an e-commerce site where you just want to achieve an end with minimal effort, but photography is an inherently romantic and artistic act. We deserve not only to create beautiful images but to do so in beautiful ways with beautiful tools. Hypocam achieves this.
(To be clear, I welcome new features and updates, and trust that if and when they come, it will be with respect for what is already great about the app)Show lessayarovenko
Aspect ratio of camera
There is a lot to like about this app. I like the filter and noise options. But there is one basic thing that needs to be fixed. When taking a picture the whole screen is filled. This means that the vertical part of what the camera captures is accurate, but you don’t see everything the camera captures horizontally. That is, I’m seeing a 16x10 image, but camera captures 4x3.Show lessWhgsdtu
Best black and white app but…
I really love this app and I’m glad you finally updated it. But when can we expect to have the option to switch lenses? For now I have to shoot in another app and edit in hypocam. I’d love to be able to shoot straight from the app but with only one lens that’s not an option 80% of the time.JaiOh81

Worst App in the history of mankind
Nothing works. When something finally works it terrible looking. I believe it charged me 33 dollars for a 3 dollar pack that did nothing. Contacting Apple.ECHass
