LiveMM vs ApexShot

--- Know your focal length. Every shot. LiveMM displays your real-time 35mm equivalent focal length and angle of view directly on the viewfinder — so you always know exactly what you're shooting. Whether you're a film photographer trying to match a composition on your phone, or someone who wants to develop a sharper eye for perspective, LiveMM speaks the language of real cameras. --- REAL-TIME FOCAL LENGTH OVERLAY As you zoom in or out, LiveMM instantly shows the 35mm equivalent focal length (e.g. 26mm) and angle of view (e.g. 77°) on screen. No lag. No guessing. HARDWARE-ACCURATE READINGS LiveMM reads the field of view directly from your iPhone's physical camera hardware using AVFoundation. The focal length you see is calculated from the actual optics of your device — not a rough estimate. LENS PRESET BUTTONS Instantly switch between your phone's physical lenses — 0.5×, 1×, 2×, and 3× — with a single tap. LiveMM automatically detects which lenses your device has at startup, so it works correctly on any iPhone without a device database. PINCH TO ZOOM Use standard pinch-to-zoom gestures for continuous zoom between lens presets. The overlay updates in real time throughout the entire zoom range, including digital zoom. PHOTO CAPTURE WITH EXIF DATA Capture photos directly in the app. The 35mm equivalent focal length is written into the photo's EXIF metadata, so your camera roll tells the full story of every shot. --- PERFECT FOR · Film and mirrorless camera photographers shooting with an iPhone · Photography students learning to see in focal lengths · Anyone who wants to understand what their phone's lenses actually see REQUIREMENTS · iPhone 12 or later · iOS 16.0 or later · Physical device required (camera features are not available in Simulator) ---

Turn your iPhone into a real action camera. ApexShot applies the pro techniques for fast-moving subjects — motorsport, sports, wildlife, kids — automatically, so far more of your shots come out tack-sharp. WHY ACTION PHOTOS COME OUT BLURRY The stock camera favors a slow shutter and blends several frames for a "clean" look. On a moving subject that means motion blur. ApexShot does the opposite: it locks a fast shutter and keeps the real single frame, so the moment is frozen instead of smeared. THREE MODES FOR EVERY SITUATION • Action (default): holds the shutter fast for the subject speed you pick, adjusting ISO for you • Panning: an on-screen level and rhythm guide help you sweep with the subject — sharp rider, streaked background • Trap Focus: lock focus on a spot and let the subject trigger the burst as it crosses SHOOT NOW, PICK LATER — AUTOMATICALLY • Smart burst: hold the shutter for a readiness-driven burst with the exposure frozen on the first frame • Pre-capture buffer: ApexShot is already recording the half second before you press, so you never miss the pass • Zero shutter lag on supported devices • The sharpest frame is chosen for you and saved to a dedicated "ApexShot" album SUBJECT CLASSES Tell ApexShot how fast your subject moves — Very Fast, Sport or Moderate — and it sets the right minimum shutter speed (up to 1/8000s) so nothing is left to chance. EVERY LENS, EDGE TO EDGE • Switch between ultra-wide, wide and telephoto native modules • Smooth pinch-to-zoom on the current lens • Live shutter and ISO readout, grid and level, volume-button shutter YOUR GALLERY, YOUR SHOTS Every keeper lands in the ApexShot album: pinch and double-tap to zoom, multi-select, share or delete — all from inside the app. HONEST BY DESIGN • 100% ad-free — no banners, ever • No accounts, no tracking, no analytics • Everything happens on your device; your photos stay in your library • Modern, fast, native SwiftUI app — no third-party code A note on results: a fast shutter needs light. In very dim scenes ApexShot keeps the action sharp and lets the image go a little darker or noisier, because motion blur can't be recovered but brightness can. For daylight, sports halls and most real-world action, it gets you keepers the stock camera would miss.
