Leave a Review Camera+ Legacy
Has Dev changed?
As I finance professional I understand the need for subscription-based pricing; without it, an app becomes unsustainable for the Dev long term. In its infancy the App Store only had free and one-time-purchase offerings, essentially creating the belief by some users they were entitled to a lifetime subscription, to include maintenance and upgrades, with no further cost. App development is an occupation, and compensation is the motivation that provides further development; without it, a developer’s interest may wane and cause the app to drown in the sea of abandonware we saw in early days. The vast saturation of mobile devices leaves a small handful of first time purchasers, unlike the early days of App Store. That being said… I’ve used Camera+ for many years and noticed it stopped working due to the addition of the subscription model. What I’m confused about is what developer own the app. There appears to be (at least) two Camera+ apps along with an app called Photon but are these by the same developer? Can we get some transparency into the transition and information on whether three apps are supported by the same team (despite having different dev names? I see my comment has already been asked but I’d like to see an answer before committing to an annual sub. I also thought there was a video app that no longer appears in the store.Show lessLAX20531
Was a great app…but
I’ve been using this app for many years. Sadly, it has become very unstable over the last few months. Often seizing up or crashing. Also, lack of support for my iPhone 12 super wide angle would have been nice. Willing to pay for upgrading to latest version - but not for a subscription!Art Attack
Love the legacy version (hate the “new” one I paid for)
I have used and loved the original for years and made the mistak of accepting the offer to purchase a subscription to the “new” (pro) version. I absolutely hate it and immediately delete the app. Right now it’s on a seven day free trial but then I’ll be charged for a years subscription to something I’ll never use and have already deleted because I can’t figure out how to cancel before I’m charged. 🤬Show lessBobbiMarie
I use this app all the time
One of the few apps that work as an extension which is essential!
I love the borders feature. My only suggestion: some customisation options for border.
For example I would like to be able to set any colour for the Matt borders. Also being able to change font of caption would be great too.
I also have the newer version of this app, but find the legacy one more convinient most of the timeShow lessSnuffleberries
Owned Camera + Over 5 Years
What a great photo app. I’m sure it does not meet everyone’s needs but buy a professional set up if that’s the case or maybe invest in some aftermarket lenses. The pictures are just crisper, clearer and more vibrant than Apples app. There is a bit of a difference as to where when you’re taking a photo of friends the distance is different than the native camera app.
Just recently I’ll open the app and it will intermittently decide not to work. I’m sure they’ll fix it but as you would imagine, it is a bit frustrating.Show lessDPL75
Latest update - app crashes
I love this app! I use it all the time to enhance pics and have used it for many years. Unfortunately after the latest update to the app yesterday, it now crashes every time upon trying to open it.Bella1008
Nothing special.
Super disappointed with the lack of everything. Not worth the moneym-m-m2
Not happy. Company is underhand.
I originally purchased the camera plus app some years ago and paid for it.
Now it has been updated to + legacy it no longer appears in my app account as even downloaded.
I can open it on my old phone but can no longer download the paid version from my account to my new phone.
I have reported this to the developer and am waiting for a reply. If I do not hear from them I shall be seeking advice from Apple.
This is such a shame as I used the app frequently and was about to upgrade to the latest and newly designed version.
This I now marred my entire experience and those who have had the same experience should complain loudly.
I will update and hopefully give you all good news that we now have access to previously paid for goods.Show lessLights burning
