It stays on the lens I pick, and I love the fine focus slider. I’m getting great microscope pics with it. ### 5/5 — Simple, Straightforward, Amazing. *2026-08-26* Ever since I got interested in macrophotography and microscopy, I’ve needed a camera app that’s more manual than the iOS standard, but they’re almost always subscription-based or overbuilt. This app does anything you need it to, and it does it all for free: lens switching, exposure/focus lock, photo/video, library access, and it’s all simply and intuitively designed. It’s refreshing to see an app that does exactly what it says it does without bugs or ads getting in the way. I would highly recommend this app to anyone interested in optics, biology, or photography in general. ### 5/5 — This works perfectly *2026-07-15* I love this, no more hovering over the scope and blurry photos. This app will be a game changer for the courses I teach. Thank you for developing it! ### 5/5 — Perfect for teaching *2026-07-11* This app is perfect for showing students specimens on the microscope. The zoom and focus functions on the app make it so easy to use! It’s great for all ages! ### 5/5 — Get this for your microscope, or anything with an eyepiece! *2026-07-09* Capturing photos and videos of what your microscope/binoculars/telescope is normally expensive, because it requires specialized cameras. But the eyepieces on those optics present images that both your eyes and cell phone can see! So why not just mount your phone next to the eyepieces? Because phone camera software loves to automatically change which lens it uses to capture images. This behavior actually prevents your camera from taking images through the eyepieces. Locking which camera your phone uses *also* costs money with specialized applications- or at least it used to, before Nimalan and Bob made a free app (this one!) that actually locks focus and locks the lens your phone uses. Amazing! Also there's no ads. Lovely. An app that does what it says with nothing else in it. 11/10, perfect app. ### 5/5 — Easy to use and accessible *2026-07-03* Work great for adjusting focus and then locking in conditions for movies through the eyepiece. I also love that it makes it so multiple people can effectively look through the eyepiece at the same time. And by taking a video my voice can be the metadata. :) Thanks for making this and sharing it with the community! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
