See in the dark. Kamera turns your iPhone into a night camera: a brighter live view, night-vision lenses, real depth from the LiDAR scanner, and capture modes built for after sunset. LIDAR NIGHT VISION On Pro model iPhones the LiDAR lens reads the scanner on the back of your phone and draws the room as measured distance. It works in complete darkness, with no light at all, because the scanner brings its own. Tap two points for the distance between them, in meters or feet: Apple's own Measure app needs light to find a surface, and this one does not. Requires iPhone 12 Pro or later (Pro or Pro Max), or iPad Pro from 2020 onwards, and reaches about 5 meters. NEW: NORMAL LENS AND COMPOSITION GUIDES Normal is your iPhone camera's own picture, untouched, for everyday photos. The grid button opens guides over the viewfinder: rule of thirds, golden ratio, symmetry, centered and more. MANUAL CONTROLS AND RAW Take the camera off automatic. Lock focus at infinity for stars, set shutter and ISO by hand, hold white balance, let focus peaking show you exactly what is sharp, and save a DNG next to the JPEG. KAMERA ON YOUR WRIST The Apple Watch app taps you when Guard Mode sees something, wherever you are in the house, and shows what tripped it. Fire the shutter from your wrist too. Your iPhone has to be open and running Kamera: the watch is an alert relay and a remote control, not a way to watch the house from elsewhere. GUARD MODE Point your iPhone at a room and let Kamera keep watch, on motion, on sound, and on Pro models on measured depth. Set a tripwire at a chosen distance and be alerted only when something crosses it. Stealth Watch dims the screen to near black for an overnight watch. Events are logged with thumbnails to a private in-app log, never to your camera roll, and nothing ever leaves your phone. FOURTEEN NIGHT LENSES Classic green night vision, LiDAR depth, noir, amber, Ember and Magma heat-look palettes and more, each graded for low light and rendered live. Retro now holds sixteen film stocks. CAPTURE MODES BUILT FOR THE DARK - Night Photo: full-resolution stills with a brighter, cleaner live view - Light Trails: paint with headlights, sparklers and stars - Astro: stacked exposures for star fields and the night sky - Night Timelapse: compress hours of darkness into seconds - Glow: low-light selfies lit by your screen PHOTO RESCUE Already have a shot that came out too dark? Photo Rescue re-develops underexposed photos from your library and pulls the detail back out of the shadows. Dark videos too, re-developed frame by frame into a brightened copy. NIGHT ALMANAC Moonrise, moonset, phase and illumination, astronomical twilight, and tonight's darkest hour. Computed on your device; nothing is fetched. OPEN IT FAST, SEE EVERYTHING A Control Center button, the Action Button, Siri and Shortcuts all open Kamera straight into the lens you want. While you shoot: compass heading, level, histogram, zoom, torch and a volume-button shutter. PRIVACY FIRST Kamera collects no data. No accounts, no analytics, no tracking. Depth, video and every photo you rescue are processed entirely on your device. A note on how it works: Kamera's colour lenses are stylised night-vision and heat-look palettes rendered from your iPhone camera's ordinary visible-light image. They brighten and enhance what your camera can already see; they are not an infrared or thermal sensor. The LiDAR lens is the exception: on Pro models it reads real depth from your iPhone's built-in LiDAR scanner. Kamera has no thermal camera and does not measure temperature. KAMERA PRO Go Pro to unlock every lens and every capture mode, with new looks added regularly. Choose a weekly, monthly or yearly plan or a one-time Lifetime unlock. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled in your App Store settings.
