Is your photo library filling up? GramCamera shoots the same way your stock camera does, but saves smaller files. It reduces file size without a visible drop in quality, so the same storage holds far more. ā–  You choose how much to save Pick one of four levels: Saver, Standard, Max or Original. Saver cuts size sharply against the stock camera, Standard matches the stock camera's quality and size, Max leaves extra headroom for editing and archiving, and Original means this app does not shrink the file at all. Levels apply to photos and video separately, and Fine Tuning lets you set the target size for each resolution yourself. ā–  Saved straight to the Photos app There is no separate library. Your photos and videos go into the built-in Photos app exactly as usual, and every other app can use them as always. ā–  It shows you what you saved Open a capture in the in-app album and you can see how much smaller it is compared with the stock camera. ā–  A real camera, not a toy Ā· Photo Ā· Video Ā· Slow motion Ā· Time-lapse Ā· 4K 60 fps, HDR video, Spatial Audio recording Ā· Ultra wide Ā· Wide Ā· Telephoto switching and macro Ā· White balance lock, exposure compensation, grid, timer Ā· Simultaneous front and back capture Ā· iPad support ā–  Free GramCamera is free to use. In return, a small ad appears at the bottom of the screen. It steps aside for a moment when you press the shutter, so it never gets in the way of a shot. Your captures stay on your device and in your photo library. GramCamera does not collect them or send them anywhere.

No one around to take your picture? Want a group photo with nobody left out? Solo traveller, content creator, building your Instagram feed? Tired of handing your phone to strangers? Gobo turns your iPhone into a hands-free photo shoot. Prop the phone up, choose how long to wait and how often to shoot, tap start and walk into frame. Gobo takes photo after photo on its own while you pose, move and try things. No button to press, no phone to hold, no Bluetooth clicker to remember. Frame it before you step in. Place a life-size stand-in in your room — a mannequin, or a cutout of anyone made from a photo — and see exactly where you'll stand before you set the timer. Handing the phone to a friend instead? Snap a guide photo of the framed shot so they can match it. Then pick the best. Every shot lands in Gobo's private gallery. Swipe through, thumbs up the keepers, thumbs down the misses. Only the photos you choose go to your photo library. The rest never clutter it. Real photos, not video frames. Gobo shoots full-quality stills with your iPhone's camera, so every keeper is sharp enough to post. How it works: Set the start delay, the time between photos and how many to take. Or shoot until you stop. Tap start. A big countdown and a shutter flash tell you when each photo fires, readable from across the room. Review, rate, and export only the ones you love. Just need one picture? Photo mode is a plain camera: one tap, one photo. 100 free photos every month. Gobo Pro, a one-time purchase, unlocks unlimited exports without a watermark, forever.
