Doesn’t replace Tilt shift lens

It does a couple of tricks but it is not a true tilt / shift replacement .

Response from developer

Thanks for checking out my app! Is there anything specific you would recommend to make it better? My inspiration for this app is the Petzval lens with its notable curved bokeh.

Very nice

I lost my favorite tilt shift app to a developer who didn’t want to keep updating it. So, I found this one and it is good. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because you cannot change the parameters of the effect. You only get a straight line of focus on the photo that you can adjust as far as width goes. It would be nice if you would allow for other area shapes like ovals and circles. I find that to be very helpful in producing this desired effect. The other app was a bit better for this effect, but this one is the best since that app.

If you could add that ability I will give it 5 stars.

Best Tilt Shift App

No idea why anyone is negging this. First rate app at fair price. Easy game.

Works, but missing import

Quite disappointed that I can't choose this app from the share sheet in e.g. Photos app.

There are other sources of photos than the default import view.

Also, there's no way to preview a photo full screen with zoom without saving it?

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback - we're always looking for ways to improve our apps.

Great... once you get to know it.

The good: Really quite excellent photographic tilt shift or blur vignette effects. Pops highlights well, and the bokeh are very nicely detailed. Chromatic abberation, option to add grain. Really good stuff. Quite often even desktop applications don't all of this well.

The bad: The controls/UI are not terribly intuitive. You won't really know you can move the focal point until you try it. The glow (really should be a secondary effect) is controlled by the slider, which is all you try initially. The different modes along the bottom are not indicated in any helpful way. You really have to play around with this for a bit to get a handle on what it can do.

But if you put in a little time, it really is powerful, offering quite good quality. Very organic looking.
