### 3/5 — What’s up?

*2026-08-23, version 4.9.4*

Totally out of control, I can’t take a photo horizontally, I practically can’t do anything. This happened a few days ago when I paid for the annual subscription. I need help

### 5/5 — 100x

*2026-05-30, version 4.9.1*

I was wondering if you can create another Camera Zoom app that can go up to 100x please?

### 1/5 — Update

*2026-05-12, version 4.9.1*

I have used this app as my go to camera for years. But the last update has made it unusable and I am forced to use a different camera app

### 1/5 — Zwangs-Probeabo

*2026-04-11*

Ansonsten läuft gar nichts! Und die 0,99 ct für den Videozoom tauchen wahrscheinlich auch nur dann auf, wenn man das Abo abgeschlossen hat. Direkt wieder gelöscht!

### 2/5 — What is the difference between…

*2026-04-04*

to the digital zoom of my iPhone - I do not see any difference!
I tried at max zoom to read a far away text, none of the cams could make it readable!

### 1/5 — Mislead by AI

*2025-02-03, version 4.8*

Not what I was looking for. The iPad camera is still ridiculously close to everything and I have to sit far back to get a decent shot of my desk. I honestly think this will be the last iPad I get for providing such a senseless function. I’ll look but if this problem hasn’t been corrected I’m afraid I’m not interested… I shouldn’t have had to pay for an app that doesn’t even rectify the problem.

### 1/5 — No difference in zoom

*2024-08-10, version 4.8*

Thought this would be helpful to increase zoom. Exactly the same as the camera zoom on the phone but less definition.

### 1/5 — Do not not change in zoom lvl

*2023-07-03, version 4.8*

No change I want my refund

### 5/5 — Worked fine for me

*2023-01-22, version 4.8*

When I looked through the reviews, most of the negative reviews seem to be pretty old. It seems sort of silly to complain about fuzziness when you are talking about digital zoom at 50x with an iPhone lens. You are not going to get the same quality with your iPhone zoomed with this app as you would with a top drawer zoom lens on an SLR camera. For point and shoot type pictures and just to get a little closer on portrait shots. It works just fine.

### 1/5 — Horrible app!  Scam

*2022-09-23, version 4.8*

Your iphone can do better zoom and quality without this app!
