MAKE IT YOURS
Customize every part of your camera to fit your vibe. Share colorways with others.

HDR

### 4/5 — Amazing camera app

*2026-08-20*

This is a grate camera and not everything is hidden behind a paywall but using it on an iPad it seems that when you rotate it the buttons rotate the right way but the entire screen rotates the opposite way it never used to do this is only very recant but it makes it kind of unusable it’s fine on an phone though . If this were fixed it would be the guest camera app on the  app store

### 3/5 — Ridiculously inconvenient

*2026-08-16*

Every time I want to access the camera roll, it shows me from the 1st photo in my gallery and I need to scroll through all of them to edit the one I want. I can’t find how to change and I wonder how everyone else is dealing with it. The camera interface itself isn’t very intuitive. Colors are nice.

### 3/5 — Filtres

*2026-08-15*

Dommage que les autres filtres soient payants car l’appli est dans l’ensemble très chouette et bien pensée.

### 5/5 — I don’t know how to use video mode

*2026-08-13*

How to use video mode?Can the developer explain further more?

### 4/5 — Good, wish this also took video!

*2026-08-10*

Wish there was a way to organize LUTs and take video, but the photos and UI are great!

### 5/5 — Lamine yamal

*2026-08-02*

Cette application est très pratique et vous permet de créer des images personnalisées

### 5/5 — Best app for color grading

*2026-08-01*

If you beginner in photo editing , you need this app

### 4/5 — NB Weather is better

*2026-07-31, version 1.55*

I mean, it’s good but it’s missing two features that would balance NBW and NBC. 1: panoramas. I don’t really use them for the intended purpose but I like the feature anyway. 2: videos. Need I say more- no. I don’t need to say more.

### 5/5 — 相机

*2026-07-31*

### 4/5 — Amazing but one thing

*2026-07-30, version 1.55*

It's a really good app, but if you are actually looking for good camera quality this one is slightly worse but it is hardly noticeable. But it isn't really meant for camera quality, it's meant for just more of a fidget for neurodivergent people than for actual photography.
