High quality app, one of a kind

Works as intended. What else is there to say?

Useless

This app doesn’t help to take a 3D picture.

Very Good

I’ve been very happy with Crosscam. Kevin’s a really good guy and obv a good developer. He’ll help you if needed. Just get it and find out how 3d photography completely changes your compositional eye.

Works well with uncanny results

I’m pretty amazed at how easy it was to take stereoscopic images with this app. It even works if you take two non-live photos (turn off Live Photo on each photo you’re using) offset by roughly the distance of your eyes focusing on the same object (keep it level!). You can then import the photo. Or you can take them in app using the guide and virtual level included! I’m very happy with impressive results.

So good! One request

This app is basically as good as it gets for capturing headset-free 3d. One question: how can I switch the camera to the 0.5 lens? Can you add that feature? My iPhone has 3 cameras available

Great Results

UPDATE: Updating my review to reflect the quick and very helpful response from the developer that addressed the issues I originally mentioned. This app helps to produce excellent stereo images and is easy to use. I use the app all the time and would recommend it for stereo photographers who want to quickly capture subjects with their phone.

Great Results but Buggy

This app helps to produce excellent stereo images and is easy to use. However, since updating to the latest version, every time I log in, the welcome screen pops up asking if I want to see the tutorial on viewing techniques. I have not found a way to disable this and this was not an issue before updating. Then, after clicking “no” to the viewing techniques tutorial, a “How to Use CrossCam” screen pops up every time. This is very annoying as it delays the ability to start taking pictures by a couple of seconds each time you use the app. I mostly use this as a spontaneous point-and-shoot, so even a momentary delay could cause me to miss the shot entirely.

Also, I wish this app could utilize all three cameras on my iPhone 14 Pro and utilize the zoom function. I feel somewhat limited in my composition of stereos by being stuck with the main camera on 1x zoom. Sometimes I find myself leaving the app and using my regular camera app to zoom in / out and aligning the images manually later. It would be much easier and more conviennent if the app could make use of all the lenses and zoom available in my regular camera app.

Finally, I find that the app freezes / crashes frequently if I lock the screen with the app open or if I rotate back and forth between portrait and landscape modes. Each time this happens, I have to force close the app and reopen, which does cause delay in shooting.

Overall, I use the app all the time and would recommend it for stereo photographers who want to quickly capture subjects with their phone, but the experience could be better and functionality improved even more.

Response from developer

Hi BValvs, Thanks for letting me know about the bug you were facing with the welcome popup. I just released a new version today that should fix that for you. You'll see the popup one last time and then no more. Please reach out to me if you find any other issues by emailing me@kra2008.com. Thanks! With regards to using multiple cameras - it's actually a bug if you AREN'T able to use all three. If you tap the little camera icon with the swirly arrows in the upper right camera it SHOULD switch between all available cameras in succession. If it isn't doing that, please email me@kra2008.com so we can try some test versions and I can get you a version that lets you do this. I don't have an iPhone with multiple cameras on it and Apple doesn't allow cameras to work on the simulators so the implementation was just my best guess. As far as digital zoom goes (not optical zoom), CrossCam does let you do this using the cropping functionality. It doesn't operate on all sides at the same time as a digital zoom would do, but the end result is exactly the same, and I personally think it's even better than a digital zoom in real time because you can take as much time as you want to adjust afterwards rather than getting stuck with whatever was originally captured. Again, please email me@kra2008.com if you'd like me to explain that a little more. It can be confusing. I'll look more into the issue with locking and unlocking and switching orientations. I haven't been experiencing that myself but I'll really hammer the thing and see if I can get some test results. Thanks again for letting me know. Please consider updating your review with the fixed version, and do reach out so we can work on these other issues. Thanks, Kevin

Awesome

Does what it says it will do, and does it well.

The best stereogram camera App I can find so far

To be frank, there’s no many other Apps that can do this stereogram photo taking, and this is the best one I can find so far.
The auto-align function is quite useful and it helps make the 3D effect better. Although it does have some bugs that requires a restart but in general this is great!

Fantastic!

Love! Love! LOVE THIS APP!!! I use it often to enhance my journaling. It’s so nice to write an entry into my diary and include a 3D photo (using the cross-eye or parallel viewing technique) to capture my memories! Thank you for creating this gem of an app!!

Buttons not working

This app was great, but following the latest update I can’t get any of the buttons to work! I’ve made sure my phone is updated, and I deleted and reinstalled the app, but it’s still not working. The only thing that does work is the “swipe to swap” function. Please fix ASAP!

Update: The developer responded quickly and was able to resolve the issue. Great app, and glad it’s working again!

Perfect

I was searching for an app like this for a while , and now I found it. The app runs without problems and works as the developer described it. No hidden in-app-purchase or ads. Great Work!

Perfect tool for stereoscopic pictures

This app has everything you need to take 3D pics. It guides you through the picture taking (angle, direction, etc.) and has a bunch of tools to make your pictures better. It also has parallel view and red/cyan 3D for if you have 3D glasses!

This app is amazing! Imo the best on the App Store.

Awesome app that is simple but very effective, I believe tat it has auto alignment and cropping features. Outcomes of images are often much better than manually editing on a computer.I would recommend this app for anyone who can cross view images. (The developer is also very quick to respond to feedback, you can find them on Reddit u/KRA2008)

Fantastic app - easy and effective!

What a brilliant app! Quick and easy to use - creates perfect cross view images within seconds. Far better for making cross views when out and about rather than manually on the computer. I recommend this app to everybody!

Great way to take cross view pictures

This app has allowed me to do something i never thought would be possible with just a phone. If you can view cross view images, this is a great app to have.
