What's New in PhotonCam

2.1.2

October 25, 2026

Thanks for choosing PhotonCam. This version: - Improved the look of the date stamp. - Added a new option in Photo Edit Settings to always place the date stamp at the bottom-right corner, regardless of the photo’s orientation. - Added support for attaching Soft Skin, Grain, and Film Photographic Style metadata, so older iPhone models such as the iPhone 17 Pro can get similar Photographic Style editing in the Photos app. Requires iOS 27; turn on the new toggle in Lab settings first. - You can now adjust a photo’s horizontal and vertical perspective in the editor. - More optimizations for iPhone Duo. - Updated the in-app tutorials to support more languages. Recent update: - Added a brand-new Starburst effect. The Starburst effect is customizable with some options like the Ray Length, Temperature and Star points count. - Using the new ST filter can easily create Starburst effect even for older iPhone models for any photos. Note that due to performance consideration, using the Starburst effect in the camera view will only output maximum 12MP HEIF/JPEG, while there’s no limitation when saving photos in the editor. - Added the Curve adjustment. You can adjust the RGB Curve or individual channel. PhotonCam also introduces some nice details: when you select a point, you can fine-tune it by dragging in the empty area so your finger won’t block the UI; you can also sync the current curve to other channels via the “…” menu. - The halation effect now has HDR support. - Adapted for iPhone Duo. PhotonCam on iPhone Duo will have the editor only, just like iPad. Camera feature is coming soon. - Supports viewing image in landscape. - Note that the support for iOS 18 will be dropped in the near future. Please use iOS 27+ to get better experience. - Bug fixes and improvements.

Full of features, excellent value

I'm surprised this app has so few reviews—it's hands down one of the best camera apps I've tried since upgrading to 17 Pro. Tons of features for pros but doesn't overwhelm you if you're new to photography. There's a subscription but it's a fraction of what a lot of the top camera apps are charging.

I’ve tried em all

I think I’ve tried just about every app that lets you shoot with LUTs/presets and this is by far my favorite. The ability to shoot with AND edit with the same presets later (or with photos not even taken in Photon) is so great. It’s all subjective, but this is the right combo of features, UI, and editing tools for me.
