### 5/5 — Incredible camera app

*2023-06-01, version 1.0.2*

By far the best camera app I’ve used. I was in the TestFlight beta and when it expired briefly I was so upset that I had to go back to the default. The interface is simple, beautiful, and ergonomic. Goooood stuff

### 5/5 — Love it

*2023-06-01*

Effortlessly awesome

### 5/5 — Favorite Camera App

*2023-05-31, version 1.0.2*

Incredible colors and no editing required. Needed this years ago.

### 5/5 — Best Camera

*2023-05-31, version 1.0.2*

Randomly found the App in early beta on Twitter. Been using it ever since as my only Camera. Even converted my wife. Would be great if existing images from the Camera Roll could be retrofitted with the same correction.

### 5/5 — Simply the best, and better than all the rest

*2023-05-30, version 1.0.2*

I’ve been testing Stops since the TestFlight beta and it’s by far my favourite camera app on iOS. The outputs are just *chef’s kiss* and the filters and grain are spot on every time.

### 5/5 — Mahogany is better than flatpack

*2023-05-30, version 1.0.2*

Saw some random bloke on Twitter post a picture and they mentioned they used this app. Fascinated, I downloaded the beta and started using it…and just sort of never stopped. This is a great camera app.

It’s like installing a bloody good bit of solid varnished wood furniture into your house. Does the basic flat pack IKEA shelves work? They’re alright, but nothing can beat the artisan craftsmanship of a good bit of mahogany. 

This is that, but free—every camera option has been carefully selected to please the eyes. The UI is uncluttered and welcoming. This might just be the app that feels good, too—a rare case where the developer takes full use of the haptics to make every button press make your fingers smile.

I have no idea who the developer is and I’ve long since forgotten why I signed up for the TestFlight, but now it’s on the App Store, I feel obliged to pay my appreciation for this project. I’m still just as crap at photography and thanks to this app I wouldn’t have it any other way.

### 5/5 — Scratches the itch

*2023-05-29, version 1.0.2*

I’ve been using it as an instant film replacement for when i don’t want to use one of my 36 exposures in a film roll, using it since the testflight beta and had only improved since. Amazing camera App.

### 5/5 — great app

*2023-05-29, version 1.0.2*

been using this app for a while and it has revived my desire to take quality photos

### 5/5 — The best photo app out there

*2023-05-29*

Say goodbye to the hassle of switching between different apps for shooting and editing. Stops is the app to rule them all.
It combines the most joyful shooting experience with the most beautiful colors and contrast. It’s the perfect package.

### 5/5 — Transparent dev work

*2023-05-29, version 1.0.2*

Great job in creating this app. Looking forward to future iterations.

### 5/5 — Using it daily!

*2023-05-29*

The dev has done an amazing job and it has become my default camera app.

### 5/5 — Pictures come out crispy

*2023-05-29, version 1.0.2*

I love the Stops app for photos. The pictures come out crispy and delish. Stops manages to capture the colors perfectly in the moment.

### 5/5 — Minimalist Mastery

*2023-05-28, version 1.0.2*

I usually try to bring my actual camera with me when I’m out and about. But sometimes I forget, or the weather is less than ideal, or a moment calls for something a little more casual.

That’s where Stops steps in. It has completely replaced my default Camera app for everyday use. Just point, and shoot. It doesn’t pretend to turn your smartphone’s prosaic camera into an elite professional tool rife with precise settings adjustments. It allows you to capture a moment and hold onto it forever — unostentatiously — as a camera should.

This app is for photography romantics. Those that care less about image fidelity and more about the soulful symphony of emotions expressed in the tableau of the photograph.

### 5/5 — The only camera app most people will ever need

*2023-05-26, version 1.0.1*

Simple and to the point with excellent results. Stops takes the perfect picture every time with no need to fiddle with other filter apps. This app has inspired me to take photos again!!

### 1/5 — Garbage app now

*2025-04-14, version 1.3*

Can’t even use it without a $2.99 monthly subscription. What was a super simple app with great utility has become useless I uninstalled it

### 3/5 — I used to love this app

*2024-01-24, version 1.3*

As other have mentioned, the shutter suddenly stopped working. I have taken thousands of pictures with this app since I downloaded it months ago. Then randomly one day I lost hours of pictures because they didn't save. I love what this creator has done, and I hope they recover this app.

### 3/5 — Abandonware

*2023-12-08, version 1.3*

The app is wonderfully designed and is a joy to use, when the shutter actually works and the photo is taken, which has been hit or miss for me. Oftentimes the app does nothing when you take a photo and you just miss out on the moment entirely.

I paid for Pro subscription but seems like any updates for this app stopped a while ago and developer link from the AppStore just redirects back to the AppStore. Not cool

### 3/5 — Almost perfect

*2023-07-23*

The image doesn't get saved if I snap a picture and switch to the gallery too fast / early 😔 would be great to get a fix for this, would give it 5/5 otherwise.

### 4/5 — Great with a few bugs

*2024-04-04, version 1.3*

I want to love this app, but a couple of things are holding it back. First, if I open it while listening to music, the music pauses, which is annoying. Also, there doesn’t seem to be an option to use my phone’s wide angle lense. Otherwise, this is a great app with a really nice design.

### 4/5 — Excellent Pipeline, Missing a Big Feature

*2023-07-27, version 1.1.1*

I love this app- I love the UI, I love how it just works.

But as a parent, I can’t lose moments, and sometimes this shutter isn’t as responsive as the standard camera, causing me to miss moments. I’d pay for Pro in a heartbeat and ditch my NomoCam annual sub if I knew that I could simply import images in this app.

### 5/5 — love

*2024-04-13, version 1.3*

love everything about this app just want a single toggle for using the zoom lens would be so nice

### 5/5 — Essential Camera app

*2024-03-02, version 1.3*

Fantastic photo app, super clean and simple UI. Please add more film profiles in future updates! 🙏🙏

### 5/5 — Love the care put into the colouring algorithm!

*2023-12-27*

The free tier covers 90% of use cases. I’m a fan. 

Paid tier could be a little cheaper in India though, 2k is a *lot* of money here. 😅

I also really miss the app icon used in the beta testing phase! Any chance you could bring that back?

### 5/5 — Love it

*2023-11-24, version 1.3*

I just found this app and I’m so happy that I did!

## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Been using Stops since early beta – it’s my default camera app

*2023-08-28, version 1.3*

Stops is incredible. I love using it. It has replaced my default camera app (and I have been using lots of apps across my Android and iPhone). I still use my Android for low light photography and video, but those are the only two exceptions.

Rehat has built an incredible app. I don’t feel like editing my photos anymore.

### 5/5 — L’app idéale pour des photos uniques

*2023-08-24*

Stops permet de prendre des photos avec un style unique et qui ajoute un charme à chacune des photos prises. Dommage qu’il manque peut-être d’options afin de changer l’apparence des photos mais appart ça l’app est géniale !

### 5/5 — Fun

*2023-06-28*

The default Camera app is no longer fun - super slow, filled with features I don’t use, etc. Stops is fun, fast, and looks cool. Thank you guys

### 5/5 — I adore this app

*2023-06-18, version 1.1.1*

Aside from it producing the most wonderful photos, it’s just so much fun to use. It has whimsy; sorely lacking from so many apps these days. The UI is stunning; so well considered and fun. It’s replaced Apple’s Camera app for me. What an achievement 👏👏

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2023-06-05, version 1.0.2*

What a dope app!

### 5/5 — The BEST phone camera

*2023-06-02, version 1.0.2*

I’ve been beta testing for the past few months and this is my go camera for everyday things.
