What's New in Aquarium Camera

4.0.4

April 22, 2026

4.0.0 is a complete re-architecture built to maximize the performance of your iPhone and iPad. Capture full-resolution photos and 4K video, choose from 32 lens filters, and save or share your presets. Built-in tips and instructions help you get the most out of every shot. A dedicated gallery keeps your aquarium photos and videos organized, while volume shutter support and haptic feedback make shooting even better. 4.0.1 restores pinch-to-zoom and focus controls, enhanced gallery view, and gallery photos and videos now sync with iCloud when enabled on your device. 4.0.2 restores Color Balance controls, including RGB (Classic) settings and improved White Balance options for more precise manual tuning. Camera zoom stability fixes help prevent unexpected jumps after using the zoom button. This update also adds an Autosave to Library toggle for new photos and videos, plus clearer camera permission handling and recovery. Thanks to all the users for their amazing testing and feedback! I love you. 4.0.3 & 4.0.4 restores several features users missed from version 3, while preserving the full-resolution photo and 4K video capabilities introduced in version 4. It also includes a UI overhaul to improve usability and make the app easier to navigate. Color balance controls now go further for heavily blue-shifted tanks, and Color Filter mode now includes a full-screen option. Thank you so much for downloading and all the great feedback!

Old version was way better

I wish there was a way to get the old version back. Should have never updated. I definitely do not like the adjustment sliders not adjusting until you release. You should get real time feedback as you slide. Old app was way better. And took better pictures. At least on my phone.

Mudaram o programa

Utilizo o programa a anos, na última atualização acabaram com o programa. Eu simplesmente não consigo entender porque mexer no que era ótimo. Eu comprei quando era sensacional e hoje a decepção é total

Obrigado pelo seu feedback. Esta atualização foi necessária para adicionar suporte a imagens em alta resolução, vídeos em 4K e diversos outros recursos novos. Sabemos que mudanças podem levar um tempo para se acostumar, mas continuaremos aprimorando o aplicativo e agradecemos por compartilhar sua opinião.

New update is horrible.

This newest update basically broke the app and made it useless. So sad because this app was amazing before and nearly eliminated the use for coral lens. But the new update made the app basically garbage. The UI is horrible, and the color correction itself doesn’t seem correct. And doing the manual adjustments yourself to get it *just right* like with the previous version is now impossible. This is the definition of fixing something that isn’t broken. Very regrettable as the app used to be a very useful tool for me. It was great for 8 years.. why change it.

EDIT: He updated it to try and fix it, but it’s still terrible. Don’t download unless they revert to older version. Why’d they break it or want to change it, I still don’t know.

See what you think of version 4.0.3. I brought back the pieces that were good about version 3 and kept the full res and 4k video to boot.

Thanks for fixing the update

Thanks for fixing the issues with the update. The app is back to simple and quick to use. Highly recommend

Photos can now be saved directly to your photos library. It’s optional in case you want to leverage the gallery with iCloud. When you mean changing filters is it that the ring is too small? I’m thinking of adding a toggle that moves the controls to full screen.
