PlainCam vs Oqra Cam

PlainCam is a minimal iPhone camera focused on photo capture and output control. It keeps the shooting interface quiet while keeping the essential controls close: viewfinder, shutter, flash, exposure compensation, grid, front/back camera switching, and rear physical lens selection. In Settings, you can choose JPEG, HEIC, and, on supported devices, RAW DNG, RAW + JPEG, or RAW + HEIC output. PlainCam does not require an account, does not upload photos, and does not include ads or social features. Captured photos are saved to the system Photos library. The in-app gallery is only used to browse photos saved by PlainCam. RAW availability depends on the current iPhone and lens hardware. If RAW capture is not reported as available, PlainCam does not present RAW as an output option.

Oqra brings the character of film to your iPhone, with looks you can make your own. Its physics-based film engine models light-sensitive layers, dye color, grain, and halation, developing each image entirely on your device. LOAD A FILM. POINT AND SHOOT. Choose a film recipe and see its character in the live viewfinder. Shoot with the look already applied, without a separate editing step. MAKE LOOKS YOURS. Start with a preset or build your own. Shape color, grain, halation, and the response from shadows to highlights. Go deeper with individual emulsion layers, dye settings, and H&D response curves. In-app guides explain the controls as you explore. SCAN. LOAD. SHARE. Share your film recipes as QR codes or links. Scan a friend's code, add the recipe to your collection, and shoot with their look. FILM CHARACTER. RAW DETAIL. Capture and develop Apple ProRAW or RAW DNG on supported cameras. Still-photo capture reaches up to 48 MP where supported by your device and camera. Enable Keep RAW Original to retain the original DNG alongside your developed photo when shooting RAW stills. KEEP THE MOMENT MOVING. Capture Live Photos with the film look in both the still image and the motion, or record Film Clips up to 30 seconds long. READY FROM THE LOCK SCREEN. Open Oqra from its Lock Screen control, or assign it to Camera Control on supported iPhones. Your selected film recipe is ready when the camera opens. PRIVATE BY DESIGN. Your photos are developed on your iPhone. No Oqra account. No upload needed for processing. Live Photos, Film Clips, and unlimited custom recipes require a one-time in-app purchase. No subscription.
