Underwater Camera App designed for the ProShot Dive Case, ProShot Touch 2.0 Case, and all other ProShotCase waterproof iPhone housings. The ProShotCase app changes your iPhone’s volume buttons into camera controls, providing you with full camera functionality while filming underwater using a ProShotCase. The volume (-) button cycles between all camera modes (photo, video, slomo, timelapse, timer, selfie cam, sleep), and the volume (+) button becomes the action button (takes a photo, starts/stops video, etc.). You can zoom in (to 5.0x) and out (to ultra wide angle camera) by long-pressing your volume buttons. You have the option to record video in 60 FPS, and in 4K, which when enacted records video in Dolby Vision HDR for true-to-life color and contrast. All footage taken in the ProShotCase app is also saved directly into your iPhone's native Photos app for easy editing and sharing. The ProShot Dive Case is a hardshell underwater housing, rated to 130ft/40m, and the ProShot Touch 2.0 Case is a touchscreen-compatible underwater housing, rated to 50ft/15m. Both cases have easy-to-press volume buttons used to control the app. When using this app with a ProShot Touch case, you can interact with it through traditional touchscreen UI when above the water.
