Available up to 4K 60 FPS. - Stitch Recorded Footage. Available in the main settings menu under the “File management” tab. The “Stitch Recorded Footage” option allows pausing/resuming the recording process and saving a final video in a single file. A single tap on the record button pauses/resumes the recording process. A long tap on the record button stops the recording process. NOTE: The “Stitch Recorded Footage” option is not available in 10 bit HDR - Smart Exposure Mode. Available in the main settings menu under the “Camera controls” tab. Smart exposure mode allows controlling the exposure via a single control slider similar to the native camera app. Smart exposure mode produces cleaner results compared to the regular/default manual exposure control mode and helps to reduce the amount of noise/artifacts in shadow areas of the scene. NOTE: The individual controls for ISO and SS are not available in Smart Exposure Mode. The exposure can be adjusted by 8 stops (+/- 8) with the exposure slider. - Improved Focus Peaking visibility in QHD and 4K resolutions. - ATTENTION: We updated the File Management System for improved stability. If you experienced crashes in the gallery and/or if you have existing project folders, we strongly recommend copying all files to your computer, then deleting the app and doing a fresh install to ensure the most optimal performance.

1.15

September 15, 2021

- Fixed crash bug when entering the gallery. - Fixed preview distortion bug in photo mode at 1:1, 3:2, and 16:9 aspect ratios. - Added option to copy to camera roll and share videos recorded with anamorphic settings in 10-bit HDR and 8-bit at 4K 48/50/60 FPS, HD/FHD at 120/240 FPS without conversion. Now you can share original files in 16:9 aspect ratio to de-squeeze them later in the post. Conversion to proper anamorphic aspect ratio is also available in the Beastcam gallery. NOTE: in the previous version 1.14 we updated the Anamorphic hardware settings for 10-bit HDR and 8-bit at 4K 48/50/60 FPS, HD/FHD at 120/240 FPS to ensure the most consistent FPS when recording with anamorphic lenses by disabling live aspect ratio de-squeeze preview and real-time conversion. Conversion to the proper aspect ratio is available in the app gallery for each individual video file, batch conversion is available in the app gallery by selecting multiple files or complete project folder. *If you have any feedback, please email us at support@beastcam.com

1.12

April 5, 2021

This update comes with many new features and performance improvements! New features: - ProRAW format on iPhones 12 Pro Max and 12 Pro - New menu to switch between video and photo modes eliminates accidental switch. Now, after tapping on the camera icon you will have to select the mode to switch or close the menu - New aspect ratio guides and instant crop (video mode). The instant crop switcher is added to the aspect ratio guides sub-menu. When enabled, the video will be saved in the selected aspect ratio (1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 2.39:1, 2.76:1). Instant crop is available for HD/FHD (8-bit) at 24, 25, 30,48,50,60 FPS and QHD/4K (8-bit) at 24, 25, 30 FPS. - New expanded mode for exposure and focus reticles. Tap and hold on exposure or focus reticle to switch to expanded reading mode. The expanded reticles mode will trigger average scene reading for both exposure and focus instead of the spot reading. Exposure and focus can be locked the same way by taping on reticles. To return to spot reading mode, tap and hold on the reticle. - Zoom, Focus, and White Balance pull. Now you can set a transition timer between local preset points for Focus, Zoom, and White Balance. A new timer Icon is added above preset numbered icons that allow setting a transition timer from 0 up to 10 seconds. The timer for each of the Focus, Zoom, and White Balance settings can be set individually. Once the timer set, it will affect the transition time between set points for smooth and even pull action. Quick Zoom. Now you can choose between digital zoom and zoom preview to trigger Quick Zoom from the camera UI, in addition, zoom power can be set from 1X up to 10X (controls are added to the main settings menu). The digital zoom (Zoom) option is available at all camera settings, and it will apply actual zoom to the camera. It is extremely helpful when setting up a white balance or exposure from a specific area of the frame, also to check/set the focus. Zoom preview (Preview) option will trigger preview zoom only, and will not affect actual camera zoom, so it can be used at any time during video recording to quickly check the focus. The preview option is not available at 10-bit HDR mode (on iPhones 12 Series) also in HD/FHD at 120, 240 FPS, and 4K at 48, 50, 60 FPS. - Visual Analytics ”Auto” mode: When enabled, it will trigger Zebra Stripes when changing exposure manually and Focus Peaking, when changing focus manually. NOTE: Visual analytics are not available in 10-bit HDR mode, also in HD/FHD at 120, 240 FPS, and 4K at 48, 50, 60 FPS. - Hide interface on touch. Additional option added to keep/hide shutter release button when hide interface is enabled. - Camera orientation lock. Available in the main settings menu to lock the camera in a horizontal or vertical orientation. - Main Settings Menu. New layout with three main categories: Camera controls, User interface, and File management for easier and quicker navigation. - Global Presets Menu. Added bit depth information (8-bit or 10-bit HDR) to the info table. Now, you can load your presets even faster by double-tapping on your preset name. Rearrange your presets in the list: tap and hold on a preset name to enable the moving option, then drag your preset to a new location in the preset list to keep your favorite presets at the top. -Gallery. Added camera Icon for a quick return to camera UI from all gallery folders and player screen. Batch file conversion is available for multiple selected files or complete project folders. Since 10-bit HDR mode and HD/FHD at 120, 240 FPS, plus 4K at 48, 50, 60 FPS save videos in native 16:9 aspect ratio when recorded with anamorphic settings, batch conversion becomes really useful when multiple files needed to be converted to proper 2.39:1 or 2.76:1 aspect ratios. Improved stability. Image stabilization bugs fixed: IS state preserved when switching camera settings. IS state can be saved into global preset.

Reviews of Beastcam

  • iPhone 15 Pro Max problems

    Update: Happy to see that a lot of the previously missing iPhone 15 features are now functional in this app. Can now use Apple Log, ProRes and take 48mp photos with this app. The problems I had with crashing are no longer there. I would still like to see Apple Watch functionality. Updating to 4 stars as promised and will update to 5 if Apple Watch remote is added. Thanks for the updates and a great app!

    I used this app for the first time after acquiring the iPhone 15 Pro Max. I love the app and its functionality and plan on buying a beast cage when available. There are however some issues, I understand the 15 just launched recently and these issues may be being worked through already. Hopefully an update is coming soon. Here are the issues I’ve noticed in the week or so I have used the app: When leaving the app from photo mode with the 5x tele lens active, the app sometimes crashes upon relaunch. When using 5x tele lens with photo mode, then switching to video mode, the app crashes. Built in iPhone Macro mode does not function in this app. Pro res does not function in this app. There is no way to take 48mp photos. Needs Apple Watch remote functionality for camera mode. I’ll be happy to update my review to 4 stars once the iPhone 15 Pro Max issues are fixed and update to 5 stars if Apple Watch remote functionality is added.

  • Scam and waste of money

    I paid and downloaded the app, and was excited to start using it, and it kept on crashing. The app is unusable. Every time I open it up it freezes right away I tried restarting my phone I tried updating my phone tried closing every single app and reopening it. I tried deleting and reinstalling the app. Nothing worked. I reached out to the customer support team and all they told me is that this is unknown issue that will hopefully be resolved in the future. I'm still out of the money I paid for the app?? I'll update my review if this ever gets changed in the future

  • I would mainly switch to this photo app…if it worked for 15 Pro Max

    It’s a great app with all the manual functions/controls and would be the main app I would use for picture taking…if I didn’t have problems. I have a 15 Pro Max and would love to take Raw pictures. The problem is, when I change the settings, the app stops working/will no longer take pictures. The only way around it is to delete the app all together then reinstall. I can only take it in jpeg. I’ll update my review once the problem has been resolved. Thanks.
