## What is FixedFocus?

FixedFocus is a minimalist camera for birding, wildlife, and digiscoping.

When you shoot through a spotting scope, clip-on telephoto, or dense foliage, iPhone autofocus often hunts — jumping from bird to branch to grass at the worst moment. FixedFocus puts focus back under your control.

WHY FIXEDFOCUS
• One-tap Focus Lock — freeze focus distance so AF stops hunting
• Fine Manual Focus — 0–100% slider to nail the subject
• Stay on the lens you chose — switch Ultra Wide / Wide / Tele on purpose
• Pinch zoom up to 10× when you need a closer look
• Dark, distraction-free UI for the field
• No account. No ads. No tracking. Photos stay on your device.

BUILT FOR
• Digiscoping through spotting scopes & phone adapters
• Birding when AF confuses leaves and feathers
• Wildlife & backyard feeders through glass or branches
• Anyone tired of the system camera switching lenses mid-shot

HOW TO USE
1. Point at your subject
2. Tap Lock
3. Drag the focus slider until the bird is sharp
4. Capture

Works with any adapter brand — Phone Skope, MagView-style mounts, clip-on telephotos, or just the native tele lens. No proprietary hardware required.
