CapLog is a life-log collection app that turns your photos into stickers. The food you ate, the places you went, the things you're obsessed with… Instead of leaving those photos buried in your camera roll, CapLog turns them into a record you can collect, stick, and play with. --------------------------------------------- Organize your experiences from three angles "When" — See your days add up "Where" — Connect places and experiences on a world map "What" — Grow your own themes, however you like --------------------------------------------- \ Your photos become stickers / ■ Silent Camera The fun of collecting starts the moment you shoot. Die-cut stickers are made automatically from the subject. Or keep the whole photo with a rectangular frame. Peel the sticker off the screen to save it. That little swipe is oddly addictive. The in-app camera has a silent shutter, so you can shoot in quiet places without worrying about anyone around you. \ Collect by the things you love / ■ Collection Travel, fandom, family, food… Your own categories are where your attachments live. Grow each obsession in its own folder, and give your stickers names. \ Decorate and browse / ■ Daily Calendar Decorate each day on the calendar with stickers, freely. Today becomes a single piece of art. Pick a category and the screen's inner frame softly glows in that theme color. \ Your map grows from your photos / ■ Map & Globe The globe slowly becomes a map that's only yours — an interactive history of where you've been. Stickers are pinned automatically using your photos' location data (EXIF). Filter by category and build a record map that's yours alone. ■ My Map Card Prefecture by prefecture, the map of Japan is colored in with the stickers you made there. A ranking of the prefectures you've visited is generated automatically. Share your travel record on social media! \ Collage with the stickers you've collected / ■ Art Board A suitcase, a phone case, an old CD, a floppy disk — nostalgic boards to decorate as you please. Make a piece that exists nowhere else. Save finished boards as images and share them on social media, too. ・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・ It doesn't have to be a special day. Keep the everyday "I kind of love this" in whatever shape you like. ・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・ ◆ REAL USE CASES ◆ Since you choose your own themes, CapLog works for hobby collections and for building daily habits. ● Fandom trips A shot of the venue, the local food on the road, the joy of the moment you met — every trip goes straight into your sticker journal. ● Food adventures Turn every dish from every restaurant into a sticker. Before you know it, you've built your own "delicious map." ● Sauna & hot spring hopping Make your own bathhouse map. Even the beloved sento that has since closed gets its place on the map. ● Family growth record Just stick today's photo on the daily page. One day you'll realize it's become a proper growth album. ● Fishing & birdwatching Record the size and species of fish, the names of birds you met. It quietly grows into a fun field guide. ● Training & body progress Record small changes in photos. Seeing them add up is what keeps you going. A diary, a collection, or artwork made for social media — CapLog has as many uses as the themes you decide on. ※ No account required, No Ads. ※ Sticker backup and restore use Apple's iCloud (CloudKit). All photos, stickers, and location data are stored in a private database tied to your own Apple Account. We never view or collect any of it. --------------------------------------------- Privacy Policy: https://caplog.me/privacy Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
4S Camera
Read full descriptionHide full description
4S Camera lets you turn off, one by one, seven kinds of processing that iPhone applies automatically when you shoot. It is not an app for prettier photos, and not a retro filter. Blown highlights and grain stay as the result of cutting. Stock Camera settings cannot turn off Smart HDR and related finishing item by item. This app captures Bayer RAW from the sensor and develops it with those corrections left off. How this differs from stock Camera and editors: It does not weaken processing after a photo is already taken. It does not use Apple ProRAW. It changes the capture path: a single-frame Bayer RAW is developed and saved as JPEG. What you can turn off (set to zero / disabled in development): • HDR-style local tone mapping • Sharpening • Luminance and color noise reduction • Lens distortion correction • Look controls (detail, moiré, highlight recovery) • Extended dynamic range (EDR) • Hand-off to newer RAW decoders (when Auto is off) Saved JPEG is developed without the items you turned off. DNG stays Bayer RAW. What we cannot turn off: • Minimum device preprocessing before RAW • Demosaic, color conversion, and the basic contrast curve needed for JPEG • Disabling all iPhone image processing Note: The live viewfinder and the saved JPEG can differ in brightness and color. That is not a bug — finder and saved development are different pipelines. The saved photo is the result. Requires an iPhone that can capture sensor Bayer RAW. Modes: Simple: pick 4S, 8, or XS. Detail: slider plus the seven switches. Pricing (no subscription): • First 7 days: full access • After that: 4S shooting (all corrections off) stays free (JPEG) • One-time ¥500: Detail, 8/XS, DNG, crop, shooting assist
