Read full description

Turn a sequence of frames into a cleaner, richer image—entirely on your iPhone or iPad. Celvion Stack gives photographers a complete local workflow for importing RAW/DNG or standard photos, inspecting frames, aligning, stacking, editing, and exporting without a computer. SIX PURPOSE-BUILT STACKING MODES NIGHT Combine multiple exposures to reduce random noise while preserving natural detail and color. MILKY WAY Align the sky and foreground separately so stars can remain sharp while the landscape stays stable. LIGHT TRAILS Blend selected frames into continuous, controlled light trails. SMOOTH WATER & CLOUDS Build a long-exposure look from a sequence, with smoother motion and flexible control. MOVING DISTRACTION REMOVAL Suppress people, vehicles, and other transient elements that appear in only part of the sequence. LANDSCAPE Merge aligned frames for a cleaner, more detailed landscape result. PRO MILKY WAY CONTROL Choose a reference frame, review per-frame quality scores, refine sky/foreground masks, and reject trails from aircraft and satellites, plus other intermittent light streaks, before stacking. RAW LENS CORRECTION When a matching lens profile is available, correct geometric lens distortion. Automatic vignetting and chromatic-aberration correction are not currently included. FULL-RESOLUTION EXPORT Export the final stack as JPEG, PNG, 16-bit TIFF, or 10-bit HEIF, then save it directly to Photos or Files. ON-DEVICE AI On supported devices running iOS 18, use local AI denoise and 4× super resolution. Core stacking works on iOS 17. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Processing stays on your device. Your photos are not uploaded.

About

HyperSharp Camera

Read full description

HyperSharp Camera combines the physical 0.5x ultra-wide and 1x main rear cameras into one detailed wide-angle photo. The 1x image strengthens the center of the ultra-wide composition while keeping the wider field of view. Everything is processed privately on your iPhone. One shutter press. Two physical cameras. One fused result. KEY FEATURES - Simultaneous 0.5x + 1x physical-camera capture - Real detail from both camera images - Automatic alignment, color matching, and feathered fusion - High-resolution HEIF output - Full Wide Fusion and a seam-safe 4:3 Detail Crop - Clear on-screen guide for the 1x detail coverage area - Optional 3- and 10-second capture timers - Rule-of-thirds composition grid - Pinch, drag, and double-tap result inspection - Direct sharing for either selected result - No generative AI - No accounts, analytics, ads, or tracking - All processing happens on your iPhone - Unlimited capture and export, completely free HyperSharp requires an iPhone with physical ultra-wide and main rear cameras running iOS 17 or later. Camera support is checked on device at launch. The standard iPhone 15 is the current validated reference device. For the best result, start with a well-lit, mostly static scene and keep the main subject inside the detail coverage frame. Very close subjects, fast motion, and low light can reduce alignment quality.
