Kiek
Read full descriptionHide full description
Kiek is a single-stock point and shoot for iPhone. It does not use the iPhone's own processing, such as Smart HDR or Deep Fusion. Each photograph is a single RAW exposure, developed with Kiek type 1. Kiek saves all your developed photographs to Photos, including the RAW files. In the lab you can see every photograph you took with Kiek. After taking a photograph with Kiek, you can make edits in the darkroom. Change exposure, white balance and tint, without losing quality. Kiek develops the photograph again from its RAW file. Your edits are saved to Photos automatically, and you can copy an edit from one photograph and paste it onto others. You don’t need an account to use Kiek. No photograph and no data about you leaves the phone. Kiek only uses the internet to check the subscription with the App Store. Kiek works on any iPhone that shoots RAW, with iOS 17 or later. The first week is free. Then the subscription renews every month until you cancel it in the App Store. Without a subscription, the lab and the darkroom stay open.
