Built by a night photographer, for everyone who works after dark. Twilightscapes is three things in one: a camera engineered for the night, a complete editing suite that fits in your pocket, and a gallery that turns every screen you own into an ambient display. THE NIGHT CAMERA Long exposures without filters: stack frames live for silky water and star trails, and watch the exposure build in the viewfinder. Capture a dark frame in the field and sensor noise vanishes. Full manual control — ISO, shutter, white balance, focus — with ProRAW, all lenses, an intervalometer, and an interface that dims to red so your night vision survives the session. A Lock Screen button opens the camera instantly, and your Apple Watch fires the shutter from your wrist. VIDEO & SPOTS Record video one tap from the camera and review it instantly. Or make a Spot: put yourself on screen — as a clean bubble or an automatic cutout, no green screen needed — over your photos, over any clip, or over the live scene behind you with both cameras rolling at once. Cue buttons, live volume control, and after-the-fact motion make it a broadcast desk in your hand. EDIT IN THE FIELD A real timeline editor: cut and trim on a filmstrip, punch in on the moment that matters, layer photos and headlines and animate them, replace or mix the audio, and record voiceover while the picture plays. Develop photos with a full slider set, blend star-trail and smooth stacks, build timelapses. Then post video straight to Bluesky — shoot, edit, publish, one app. THE FIELD MONITOR Link devices directly — no network needed on a mountainside. Your iPad or Mac becomes a live monitor with exposure readouts and a remote shutter; stealth mode keeps the screen dim and red. FIELD SAFE The moment a recording ends, a copy uploads to a server you control. Whatever happens to the phone, the footage is already somewhere else. YOUR GALLERY, EVERYWHERE Photos, playlists, and narrated slideshows sync across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV. Ken Burns motion, voice notes that play with their photos, a pixel loupe for the detail-obsessed, and a curated Twilightscapes collection that grows without app updates — or hide it entirely and make the app purely yours. EVERYTHING IS FREE. Twilightscapes Pro is one purchase — no subscription — that unlocks launch modes (open straight into the camera, video, dual camera, or Studio) and supports an independent artist. One purchase covers iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV.
