Nice app. Too expensive.

Ridiculous that there is a subscription fee. But the app is actually pretty good. I prefer taking photos on it IF I’m using my phone to take a photo. But can’t stand that I am paying monthly for it…and there isn’t even a video setting. Would be great to capture moody big eyes with these presets…might even justify the price. ::cough cough::

Pretty amazed

The Leica LUX Pro app is incredible. The images that I am taking now are awesome! so much more control
 bravo!

Rubbish

Don’t waste your money, it’s not that user friendly and you can’t take selfies. You also upload a photo from your camera roll to edit in the app and it doesn’t let you do anything other than share or delete.
