ApexShot

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.

Xstreamify is a private vault for your family's photos, videos, and documents — not a social feed, not public, just the people you invite. UPLOAD FROM ANYWHERE Add photos and videos from your camera roll, or documents from Files, iCloud Drive, Dropbox, and more. Organize everything into folders — Events, Family, Vacations, or your own. SHARE WHAT YOU CHOOSE Send a photo, video, or document to family members, or keep it private. You decide when a share expires. FAMILY ACCOUNTS FOR EVERYONE Invite family members, including kids — a child's account works with a simple PIN instead of a full password, set up and managed by a parent. BROWSE HOWEVER YOU LIKE Grid or list view, pinch to zoom the grid from a wide overview down to full-size thumbnails. SAFE BY DESIGN Nothing is public, and you only see what someone explicitly shares with you. You can accept or reject any share, report anything that doesn't belong, and block a sender at any time. YOUR DATA, DELETED ON REQUEST Delete your account from Account > Delete account any time — it removes everything in your vault immediately, no waiting period. See xstreamify.com/delete-account.html for details. Plans and billing are handled at xstreamify.com, not in the app.
