About

WideAngleCam

Features
Read full description

WideAngleCam - Manual Focus gives you more control over iPhone video recording than the default Camera app. Free mode includes manual fixed focus on the Wide lens, so you can try the core focus-control workflow before buying. Full Access is a separate one-time in-app purchase. It unlocks all supported lenses on your iPhone, FPS controls, resolution and maximum-quality options, full-screen preview, movable controls, and direct saving to Photos. Use it for products, sports, nature, inspections, experiments, or creative shots when you want predictable focus and recording settings instead of automatic camera decisions.
