Catch the shot you'd normally miss. QuickBurst fires off rapid photo bursts and hands-free timed captures, then helps you cull the pile down to the keepers, so every fast-moving moment ends with one great frame. Prop your phone up, walk into the shot, and let QuickBurst do the shooting. Whether you're fitting the whole group in the frame, shooting your own content solo, or traveling with nobody around to hold the camera, you'll come away with the frame you actually wanted. WHY QUICKBURST โ€ข Rapid burst capture: shoot a fast sequence and never miss the right expression โ€ข Hands-free self-timer: set it, step back, and let the camera fire on its own โ€ข Interval mode: schedule shots seconds or minutes apart for tripod and timelapse-style sessions โ€ข Smart focus & tracking: double-tap to lock focus on your subject and keep it sharp โ€ข Burst, cull, keep the best: review each session and rate your favorites fast โ€ข Built-in gallery with star ratings: organize sessions and surface your top picks โ€ข Full native quality: HDR, RAW and full resolution, matching the stock camera โ€ข Optional location tagging: stamp GPS into your photos when you want it (off by default) โ€ข Saves straight to your photo library MADE FOR EVERY SHOT YOU'RE IN Group photos where everyone looks good.

About

BurstWizard

Features
Read full description

BurstWizard is a hands-free burst camera for iPhone and iPad. Set it down, walk into frame, and it fires full-quality photos back-to-back until you stop it. iOS has no good answer to "photograph this group, and I am in it." The self-timer gives you one frame and one chance. Holding down the shutter keeps a hand on the phone. A Bluetooth remote is another thing to own and another thing visible in the picture. BurstWizard works differently: prop your phone up, frame the shot, tap to focus, tap the shutter, and a countdown gives you time to get into position. Then the burst runs โ€” until you stop it, or until it stops itself. THREE MODES - Max: every frame the device can deliver, as fast as it can deliver it. For the group photo โ€” the most frames around the moment. - Paced: one frame every 0.5 to 10 seconds. For children and animals, where the moment worth having arrives sometime in the next minute. - Timed: fire for a set duration, then stop and save without being told. Removes the walk back to the phone. BUILT FOR ACROSS THE ROOM - Tap to focus and expose, with AE/AF lock โ€” framing is settled before you leave the phone - Sound and haptics while capturing; a visual cue takes over when both are off - A capacity estimate tells you how many shots fit before you start EVERY FRAME IS KEPT Photos land in your library as they are taken โ€” not held until the end โ€” and arrive as a single burst stack, ready to pick through. If a capture is ever interrupted, everything shot up to that point is saved. PRIVATE BY DESIGN BurstWizard collects nothing. No accounts, no analytics, and no network access at all โ€” your photos never leave your device. Free, with no in-app purchases and no ads. Requires iPhone or iPad with iOS 26.0 or later.
