## What is BlackSight?

BlackSight is a computational photography app designed to take brighter and images with little amount of noise in low light conditions. Using sophisticated long exposure algorithms, it can capture high quality photos in dark environments without requiring any internet connection. Your photos are processed locally on your device , hence protecting your privacy. Tripod is not required but using one will result in sharper images.

Features:
- Compatible with all cameras (front, ultra-wide, wide, telephoto)
- Manual focus
- Timer
- Soft torch for illuminating super dark scenes
- Photo format (HEIC/JPEG)
- Shoot lower resolution image for faster processing
- Grid
- Mirrored selfies
- Front flash
- Smart white balance correction to reduce yellowish tint
- Tripod mode for taking brighter and noise free images for very dark scenes

Supported devices:
- iPhone 6s and above
- Front camera is not supported for iPhone 6s/6s+

Tips for better photos:
- Choose a moderate/dim scene with uniform lighting (avoid harsh light source like lamps/street lights)
- Use a tripod or rest your hands/phone on a surface for maximum sharpness
- Always tap to focus before taking each photo and wait for focus to stabilises (Focussing can take 1-3 seconds to lock in dark scenes)
- Hold your phone using two hands as it reduces hand motion
- Hold your breath if you are doing handheld shot (Yes, this helps!!)
- For selfies, do not blink your eyes and try to stay still with minimal head motion
- For human portraits, make sure your subjects hold very still for up to 5 seconds
- Avoid scenes having any kind of motion like cars, persons, crowds, pets, windy trees

Too Expensive

### 5/5 — A12 Bionic OK

*2024-10-16, version 2.5.0*

xs max melhorou 100%
No mínimo um ex funcionário da Apple resolveu fazer um app !! Porque não faz sentido o que esse aplicativo consegue fazer por 19,90$ 
Aplicativos como “ProShot”não conseguem! Até para os aparelhos que tem o modo noite de fabrica melhorou de mais o iPhone 11 também o aplicativo te deixa testar antes da comprar !! Faz o teste aí

### 5/5 — Amazing !!

*2024-09-18*

When the northern lights were strong one night, my IPhone X stock camera didn’t cut it. Just got random pixels of color. So I tried a bunch of different night camera apps, and BlackSight had the best quality of all of them. Not quite as good as a more modern iPhone, but real looking pictures that are easily 10x better than without it. After seeing what it could do, I had no problem with the price to remove the watermark. Wish I could include a before and after picture.

### 5/5 — Works great

*2024-05-11, version 2.4.0*

This app allowed me to capture a beautiful photo of the Aurora Australis, despite having an old phone (2018)

### 5/5 — Excelente actualización

*2024-01-14, version 2.4.0*

Mis agradecimientos por agregar soporte para cámara Ultra-wide. Gran aplicación ñ, sigue así.

### 3/5 — Hay que actualizar

*2024-01-12, version 2.3.1*

La estoy utilizando en iPhone XS con iOS 17.02 ya apoyo con el pago de la aplicación sin embargo tiene un bug o un pequeño error en la cámara principal se traba y no se puede utilizar solo en selfie o la cámara 2x pero la principal no la agarra hay que reiniciar el dispositivo para que la vuelva a detectar  es muy buena aplicación vale la pena ojalá puedan reparar ese bug de no ser por eso sin duda merece personalmente las 5 estrellas
