We’ve packed the iPhone camera with the advanced features you’ll need to take stunning pictures every time everywhere. "CameraSharp is a full-featured, fast-loading camera that is all about super-creative control." -Jason Gilbert, The Huffington Post "Easy to use, and lots of great features. What's not to like?" -Charlie Sorrel, Cult of Mac "CameraSharp... contains just about any feature you can wish for in a camera app." -Hamza Khalid, addictivetips.com "The separate focus and exposure locks are super easy to use — among the easiest I’ve found." -Marty Yawnick, Life in LoFi "a camera replacement app that offers all the features... but with out the extra bloatware" -Glyn Evans, iPhoneography.com -------------------------------------------------------- Core Features: * Six modes: normal, anti-shake, sound shutter, continuous, big button, self-timer. * ANTI-SHAKE steadies your camera and lets you take the sharpest pictures possible, free of blur. * SOUND SHUTTER allows you to take pictures of you or your friends without touching the camera by simply whistling or clapping. * CONTINUOUS MODE allows fully customizable burst or unattended time-lapse photos! * BIG BUTTON MODE allows you to touch anywhere on the screen to snap a picture. * Our exclusive TACTILE TIMER, the most intuitive self-timer in the app store, allows you to set a countdown with just a simple rotating gesture. * Our exclusive Bubble Level measures tilt in all three dimensions and uses the built-in accelerometer and gyroscope to help you accurately capture the perfect angle for your photo -- and optionally even emits sound! * Our Spot Focus and Exposure system gives you precise, independent control over the photo composition. Please note: due to hardware limitations, these two features are not fully supported on some cameras (e.g. iPhone 3G's back camera and iPhone 4's front camera). * Separate focus, exposure, and white balance locks give you ultimate control while remaining out of your way. * Simple, no-frills blazing fast picture taking with automatic background saving directly to the camera roll. * Lightning-fast built-in album viewer lets you view, share, and delete your photos without having to leave the app. Now you can quickly multi-select photos using our unique selection gesture!

Lame. ### 1/5 — CameraSharp sucks *2019-06-23, version 1.5.1* Purchased and it will not save my pictures. There’s not an option in the settings. If face although the App Store shows it downloaded it doesn’t look like it is on my phone. I would like my money back or do I have to go through Apple to get my money back. Plus it’s not showing as purchased on my husbands phone. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work any more *2019-06-22* It used to work but now it is asking for me to give permission in privacy settings and yet there is no setting to allow camera roll access. On my wife’s version on iPhone6s it has a read/write permission but on my iphone8 it does not. Can’t save any pictures. Did a whole photo shoot thinking it was being captured and nothing was saved. Otherwise it’s a handy app for self shot photos. ### 1/5 — CameraSharp *2019-06-17, version 1.5.1* No longer works. IOS 12, iPhone 8. There’s a bug here that won’t recognize the Settings. Don’t download until you see a developer response to these reviews. ### 1/5 — Access to save photos *2019-06-05, version 1.5.1* Downloaded app as looked great. When trying to use it says need to amend privacy setting to allow access to photos, but there is no setting within photos to allow this so unable to take, save, view anything ### 1/5 — There’s an issue *2019-06-03* This used to be a great app, but it’s not communicating with the phone after the latest IOS update. The app tells me to update my settings every time I use it and the photos still aren’t saving to my phone. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2019-03-10, version 1.5.1* The app doesn’t save the photo even though the settings toggle is “allowed”. No response from the author. Perfect waste of time. ### 1/5 — No longer works *2019-03-09, version 1.5.1* A great App that no longer works with iOS 12. Disappointing! ### 1/5 — CameraSharp *2019-02-27, version 1.5.1* Doesn’t work with 12.1.4. App help goes nowhere. Stay away. ### 2/5 — Not saving photos *2019-02-22, version 1.5.1* Come to review photos and nothing had been saved... ## Frequently asked questions about CameraSharp ### What does CameraSharp do?
