Your Take Better Pictures app contains rich photographic content (over 175 images in each Guide), technical image data, and descriptive field notes. Get ready to discover a myriad of new photographic techniques and composition ideas for your photography. Designed for photographers looking to enhance their creative vision and learn professional photographic techniques. Our professional photographer authors share insights and approaches to image capture that'll help you take your photography to the next level. While the guide assumes users will know how to operate the basic features of their DSLR or mirror-less cameras (aperture, shutter speed, ISO, exposure compensation, etc.), it isn’t geared solely for advanced photographers. Beginning and intermediate photographers looking to enhance their creative vision, gain inspiration, and learn new techniques will also enjoy the Take Better Pictures guides.

Your iTunes account will automatically be charged at the same price for renewal 24-hours prior to the end of the current period (another year for annual subscribers, another month for monthly subscribers) unless you change your subscription preferences in your account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Take Better Pictures at 100% against Natural's 35%. Take Better Pictures also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.1) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). Natural's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (100 vs 7). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Take Better Pictures sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $97.99 per year and Natural sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Take Better Pictures holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Natural has 100 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of Take Better Pictures's written reviews are positive against 35% of Natural's.
Take Better Pictures ships an update every 3 weeks, Natural every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 8, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
