Very Good
Works well with uncanny results
So good! One request
Response from developer
Hi Jojo, thanks for the great review! If you tap the little camera icon with the circle arrows in the top right it *should* cycle through all of the cameras including the front facing and the ones on the back. If it doesn’t, please email me@kra2008.com so we can get that fixed. Thanks again!
Great Results

Hi BValvs, Thanks for letting me know about the bug you were facing with the welcome popup. I just released a new version today that should fix that for you. You'll see the popup one last time and then no more. Please reach out to me if you find any other issues by emailing me@kra2008.com. Thanks! With regards to using multiple cameras - it's actually a bug if you AREN'T able to use all three. If you tap the little camera icon with the swirly arrows in the upper right camera it SHOULD switch between all available cameras in succession. If it isn't doing that, please email me@kra2008.com so we can try some test versions and I can get you a version that lets you do this. I don't have an iPhone with multiple cameras on it and Apple doesn't allow cameras to work on the simulators so the implementation was just my best guess. As far as digital zoom goes (not optical zoom), CrossCam does let you do this using the cropping functionality. It doesn't operate on all sides at the same time as a digital zoom would do, but the end result is exactly the same, and I personally think it's even better than a digital zoom in real time because you can take as much time as you want to adjust afterwards rather than getting stuck with whatever was originally captured. Again, please email me@kra2008.com if you'd like me to explain that a little more. It can be confusing. I'll look more into the issue with locking and unlocking and switching orientations. I haven't been experiencing that myself but I'll really hammer the thing and see if I can get some test results. Thanks again for letting me know. Please consider updating your review with the fixed version, and do reach out so we can work on these other issues. Thanks, Kevin
Great Results but Buggy
Also, I wish this app could utilize all three cameras on my iPhone 14 Pro and utilize the zoom function. I feel somewhat limited in my composition of stereos by being stuck with the main camera on 1x zoom. Sometimes I find myself leaving the app and using my regular camera app to zoom in / out and aligning the images manually later. It would be much easier and more conviennent if the app could make use of all the lenses and zoom available in my regular camera app.
Finally, I find that the app freezes / crashes frequently if I lock the screen with the app open or if I rotate back and forth between portrait and landscape modes. Each time this happens, I have to force close the app and reopen, which does cause delay in shooting.
Overall, I use the app all the time and would recommend it for stereo photographers who want to quickly capture subjects with their phone, but the experience could be better and functionality improved even more.

Awesome
The best stereogram camera App I can find so far
The auto-align function is quite useful and it helps make the 3D effect better. Although it does have some bugs that requires a restart but in general this is great!
Fantastic!
r/crossview
Buttons not working
Update: The developer responded quickly and was able to resolve the issue. Great app, and glad it’s working again!

Hi Mobiavo, Please email me@kra2008.com so we can work through this. I'd like you to answer a few questions to help me out: What model phone do you have? What OS version do you have? When you say the only thing that works is the swipe, you really mean that none of these work: shutter button, load file button, help button, settings button, tap to focus? Thanks, Kevin
