Your next great photo starts with a pose. PerClick brings a self timer camera, pose inspiration, photo booth layouts, and expressive photo looks together. Set up your iPhone or iPad, find your angle, and capture outfit photos, travel portraits, selfies, and moments with friends at your own pace. FIND YOUR POSE WITH INSPO Explore photo ideas for outfits, city walks, cafe visits, travel, couples, friends, birthdays, and more. Search for inspiration and save ideas to your favorites so your next photoshoot starts with a plan. BRING THE GUIDE INTO YOUR CAMERA Choose an Inspo photo and use it as a reference over your camera preview. Adjust the guide's opacity or mirror it to help line up your pose and composition. The guide helps you frame the shot and stays out of your captured photo. SET THE TIMER. STEP INTO THE FRAME. Choose a Photo Session preset or set your own countdown, photo count, and interval between shots. Take one photo or a sequence while you change poses, without pressing the shutter for every shot. MAKE A PHOTO BOOTH MOMENT Turn a sequence into a keepsake with 10 booth templates, including classic strips, film-style frames, grids, and instant-style prints. Capture playful moments with friends or create your own solo photo strip. CHOOSE YOUR PHOTO LOOK Explore warm, vivid, cool, faded, and black-and-white styles. Select a look before shooting and PerClick applies it to your captured photos. Your originals are kept alongside the styled versions. KEEP YOUR SESSIONS TOGETHER Browse your captures by session, view photos full screen, save them to Photos, and share the moments you love. Photos and photo strips stay organized inside PerClick until you're ready to export them. FRAME IT YOUR WAY Use the front or rear camera, a framing grid, and 3:4, 9:16, or square photo formats. Save your preferred capture settings for your next session. PERCLICK PRO PerClick is free to download with selected features and usage limits.

ManualCam
Read full descriptionHide full description
ManualCam gives you full control of your iPhone camera, and teaches you how to use it. Set shutter speed, ISO, focus, white balance, exposure and zoom on smooth dials. Set only the shutter and ISO follows, or only ISO and the shutter follows. Values you set show in amber, so you always know what's manual, and the A button puts everything back on auto. Built like a camera The Darkroom design keeps the screen dark and quiet, so your eyes stay on the picture. Settings read in crisp mono type, like the markings on a lens. Dials tick as you turn them, with a firmer click on key stops. Controls are square, with thin outlines and nothing glassy in the way. Learn as you shoot A built-in guide explains every setting in plain words, with recipes you can load in one tap. A teacher line offers one tip for the scene in front of you, and practice challenges tick themselves when your shots show you've done them. Looks and frames ⢠Six film looks built on real film stocks, saved so Photos can undo them ⢠Live look shows the look on the whole picture as you frame ⢠Crop to 3:2, 16:9, 1:1, 4:5 or a panorama ⢠Open a photo in ManualEdit to keep adjusting its look and crop Tools ⢠Focus peaking and a punch-in, Zones with a spot meter, focus and exposure lock ⢠A level, five grids and video frame guides ⢠Live histogram, zebra stripes and an exposure meter One press, more pictures ⢠Self-timer, intervals and test strips that step a setting across five frames ⢠Long exposures for silky water and light trails ⢠Scene setups, and four of your own Photos ⢠HEIC, JPEG, RAW and ProRAW, up to 48 MP ⢠Full-quality 2à from 48 MP cameras Video ⢠1080p or 4K, up to 240 fps for slow motion ⢠SDR, HDR or Apple Log, in HEVC, H.264 or ProRes ⢠View assist shows Apple Log with normal contrast while you shoot (HEVC) Hardware ⢠Volume down takes the picture; Camera Control works as a dial on iPhones that have it Private by design No account, no ads, no tracking. Your photos and videos stay in your own Photos library. ManualCam never uploads or collects them. Requires iOS 17 or later. ProRAW, ProRes, Apple Log and 48 MP need a supported iPhone.
