Take your baby's photo with a smile on their face — and their eyes open. BabySmile is made by parents who know how fast a smile can come and disappear. It's the camera for catching that grin (and skipping the blinks) on babies, kids, and even the fast-moving ones. Use Auto-click to wait for the moment, or Manual with clear color-coded guidance so you capture the face the way you want it. HOW IT WORKS • Auto-click — tap the shutter once to arm. Green frames mean ready; red means keep posing. After a brief green hold, 3–2–1 — then a smart burst keeps the best frame that passes your smile and eye rules. • Manual — shoot yourself anytime, with the same on-screen smile and blink guidance. • Photos save straight to your Photos library. Detection and shutter decisions stay on your iPhone. KEY FEATURES • Smile detection and eye blink prevention (each can be turned off) • Auto-click and Manual shutter modes • Front camera by default — flip, torch, and flash when your device supports them • Tap the preview to change focus • Works with more than one face — parents can snap themselves smiling too • Adjustable image quality to save space • Built-in Help and short onboarding • On-device detection — BabySmile never invents faces or smiles FREE FOREVER • Unlimited Manual saves • Default capture mode — clear coaching and soft face frames • Smile & eye toggles, camera flip, torch, and flash • Your first 3 Auto-click saves so you can feel the aha BABYSMILE PLUS (ONE-TIME UNLOCK) Not a subscription. Unlock once (or Restore) for: • Unlimited Auto-click • Zen mode — calmer moments, quieter chrome, softer guidance • Pro mode — richer viewfinder cues and status detail while you shoot • Quiet mode — soft flash only; no countdown or shutter haptics (great for naps) • Smile & eye sensitivity — tune how quickly Auto-click commits • Best-of-3 burst polish with Auto-click Default, Zen, and Pro are capture modes (how guidance feels while you shoot) — not themes or color skins. Without Plus, BabySmile stays on Default; choosing Zen or Pro opens Unlock Plus. Support: support@capturevana.com Privacy: https://capturevana.com/privacy Terms: https://capturevana.com/terms
