## What is Reuk?

Take full control of your camera, with Reuk you get complete control over your photo's exposure so you can make it look exactly the way you want it to. And if you have an iPhone 6s or newer you can also shoot in RAW so that you have the most flexibility when post processing your photos!

It's very easy to change any parameter to your preference, just choose what you want to edit and swipe on the viewfinder. You get full manual control over the ISO, shutter speed, focus, white balance, and flash mode.

Take photos and review them straight from Reuk for Apple Watch. You can also set a timer and make quick adjustments to the exposure or white balance without needing to touch your iPhone.

Other features
- Shoot in RAW, RAW + JPEG, or JPEG [requires iPhone 6s or newer].
- Use either the wide angle or telephoto lenses on the iPhone 7 Plus.
- Choose between the wide angle and telephoto lenses of the iPhone 7 Plus to always open the app to that focal length.
- Live histogram to help you expose your photos.
- Show a loupe when focusing to make sure your photo is focused correctly.
- Choose either a 5 or 10 second timer so you can be on the photo or to avoid any vibrations in your photo when using a tripod.
- The viewfinder shows you 100% of what your camera sees, so you get to see exactly what you're going to get once you take the photo, no guessing what part of the photo the viewfinder is cropping, and you can use the grid to help you set up your shots.
- Use the levels to make sure your photos are just right.
- Automatically uses Optical Image Stabilization when available.

### 5/5 — Intelligence

*2025-07-14, version 1.4.1*

Compatible

### 5/5 — Pretty cool camera

*2025-04-25, version 1.4.1*

Well I just began to use it, the light sensor allows to capture pics looking more natural. 
Actually takes better pics than the phone camera because it has more controls, /settings. I’ll be trying in different ambients and scenarios to see how it behaves.

### 4/5 — Imperfect, but Perfect

*2025-04-21, version 1.4.1*

I hate having apps on my phone that are enormous in size, collect data from the user, or charge a perpetual subscription for the privilege of using the app.
This is none of those. The app is small, private, and even free. For an 8 year old app, it even works pretty well. The only major bug has to do with auto-rotation, which is pretty good when you consider it has had to brave years of updates that could have broken other functionality.

### 5/5 — Отличное приложение!

*2023-05-23, version 1.4.1*

Здесь можно принудительно переключать задние камеры! Множество настроек, просто отлично, ещё и бесплатно и без рекламы! Не хватает полностью автоматической съёмки, так же не всегда хорош баланс белого. Сделайте возможность сохранять в heif 🙏

### 5/5 — Almost Perfect

*2023-04-27*

Would be great to have an option to reset any value to the default, rather than just WB.

### 3/5 — Приложение интересное, ничего лишнего.

*2020-08-17, version 1.4.1*

Изображение на Iphone se перевёрнуто на 90 градусов :((

### 5/5 — Great!

*2017-03-31, version 1.3.3*

Takes better photos than the regular camera - noticeably cleaner shots when capturing a lit subject in an otherwise dark setting (performances etc) I'm sure there are other situations I'm yet to discover

### 3/5 — Brags about shooting in raw but doesn't let you edit post photo

*2016-11-07, version 1.3.2*

Good app probably the same as every other on the market but is by no means a replacement for stock photo app. Will keep using and update review if it gets better. Wouldn't really say worth the money

### 3/5 — Rather difficult

*2016-10-15, version 1.3.1*

I'd like it to at least use auto settings and then allow you to manually tweak. By the time you've fiddled with the settings, you've missed the shot!

### 4/5 — Great app

*2016-10-04, version 1.3.1*

Easy to work with and has good features except it only has 2 zoom options which is 1x and 2x. I wish there was more zoom options or had a manual zoom and also no video option.

### 1.3.3 — 2016-12-12
