但恢复购买总是不行

App doesn’t open ….

Following the latest iOS update, I tried to restore purchase - when this failed , I uninstalled and reinstalled- now the app doesn’t open - probably linked to iOS update.

don’t download…

I downloaded this app when it was offered free, next update came with a paywall and now you can’t even click a single frame. don’t update if you have it, don’t buy it if you don’t. Scam app. You can’t even click any settings to email the dev in the app for support.

Response from developer

You're right — there's no in-app support link while the paywall is up, and that's on us. We're adding one in the very next update. For anything you need in the meantime, email support@birsoftware.com and we'll answer the same day. The crash that made the app unusable after tapping is fixed in version 3.3, currently in App Review. If you'd rather not wait, you can request a full refund directly from Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com — no questions asked, no need to go through us. — Halcyon Camera team

Manual control not working

Bug 1: the app does not respond when “Start” is pushed and the app must be fully ended and restarted to go into camera/video mode; Bug 2: three of the manual controls do not work - ISO, shutter speed and white balance - as soon as a dial for these manual controls is touched, the app exits automatically…please fix for a rerating.

Response from developer

Thank you for the detailed report — both issues are fixed in version 3.2. • The Start button on the onboarding screen now correctly transitions into the camera on first launch. • The manual control dials (ISO, shutter speed, white balance) no longer crash when touched — the underlying issue was a value-range mismatch on newer iPhones that has been resolved. The update is currently in App Review and should be live within a few days. Once you have installed it, we'd be very grateful if you'd revisit your rating. If anything is still off, please email support@birsoftware.com directly and we'll respond the same day. — Halcyon Camera team
