Like app, don’t like subscriptionMuch better than iOS camera app. Whites aren’t blown out. Zoom feature takes some getting used to
Great Manual Operation!Get this app, you’ll not be sorry.
Great appJust started but it makes my iPhone Mimi like a slr. Love it
Great App So FarI just started using it and already love it.
The best thing I like right away are the easy and intuitive controls.
I will be back with more feedback after I complete the 10-day guide and use this app for some serious photos.
Portraits mode for SE3Hello My iPhone is se 2022 (SE 3). Does the feature of portraits of objects and animals in the Halide program also support this
phone? Because in the description of your program in appstore, I didn't see a mention of SE 3. Many Thanks.
The best camera appI been using this camera since halide 1 early days and until today I'm still loving the app
Love the macroI bought Hallide specifically for the macro capability it adds to my iPhone 12. There is much here to love and grow into
FYI: No “Clean Out” / “Hide Interface” SettingLove the feature set. Love that no personal data is collected. Sadly not what I need, or I’d buy it.
FYI: for anyone looking for a “clean out” for webcam or HDMI capture with the Apple camera adapter kit, this doesn’t have
that feature.
Unmatched valueAs an early adopter, I have been very impressed with the developer’s commitment to adding value with each evolution of the app.
This app is awesomeI normally don’t leave reviews, this camera app is awesome . It really improves the camera experience on my iPhone 12 Pro. 5
stars all way its a must get.
Halide CameraProbably the best and most useful app I’ve purchased, thank you!
Best addition to my iPhone 14 pro maxThis gives my phone capability for better pictures. Now my challenge is to improve my ability to match the cameras.
Simply amazingFar and away the best app. So clear and intuitive. And so much fun! I love it. Thanks Halide. All the best, Angus
Cool featuresBut I get spinning wheel of death. Will it go away? Bought the app because of Forbes saying the iPhone SE hidden feature . Is the
se too slow?
It’s my Go-To Camera AppI use my iPad for a lot of general pictures and Halide has turned out as the best of the bunch. I rarely even open the others
anymore.
Where did your lock screen widgets go?Updated the app and your lock screen widgets vanished. Please advise.
Not a photog guy but………Not a big photog fanatic but I know enough to know you get amazing pics from this app. Well worth it
No trackers!!I’m still learning how to use the app, but the privacy of not having all my data tracked and shared is amazing! I will
definitely pay for that.
Improves the iOS Camera appHalide does a lot of stuff, but there are two features that made it indispensable:
1. Eliminates the hideous forced HDR mode.
2. Allows better control of macro mode.
Best camera app!This is the best camera app! I only wish Apple would allow making this my default camera app so I could launch it from the lock
screen
Subscription required to take 48MP photos…..So powerful!
$12/year subscription or $60 one time fee required to take 48MP photos and unlock all features of the app.
Excellent appUsed for the 1st time. It is intuitive and works as advertised.
Pro photographer 10+This app is amazing to use. Honestly I enjoy not bringing my DSLR or Mirrorless body when I don’t have to. My one wish is that
this app could Integrate with my Profoto speed lights. This would be the holy grail.
AwesomeLove the focus loop and manual mode that allows me to set my own controls.
THANK YOUAfter months of dealing with awful crashes, this update finally fixed it and now the app is usable again 😄
LOVE HALIDELOVING IT SO MUCH SO FAR
been using it for a couple months and it’s so solid of an app. so many features too.
Really enjoy this appHope the UI photo preview could be updated
PerfectThe App is so simple to use but so powerful the photos that come out especially when edited in Raw power afterwards are
unbelievably awesome.

Wish White Balance was betterI like this app a lot but the white balance is very limited - I’d like to be able to set it and then lock it so that it
doesn’t change itself if the framing changes. I looked for instructions and couldn’t find this feature so If I’m wrong my
apologies. As is, the app isnt for me.
How do you make the one-time purchase?See it mentioned in the description here and through out web, but only subscription choice in app. Please advise.
AlrightWas a good app for those wanting to shoot in raw but now that the IPhone 13-14 have added that feature I’ll be deleting this
app.
Orange skin tone in sunshineOn the iPhone 13 Pro, the automatic algorithm generates a weird orange skin tone for shots taken in the sunlight. There are a TON
of complaints about this on the internet regarding the 13 Pro camera and awful white balance management. Unfortunately this app
does not correct it.
Please improve stabilityThe app is laggy on iPhone 12. It lags on menus & it lags when taking a photo. Please fix and improve the core experience.
A good app now a cheap money grabAll after i was a part of the 1st funding round does now pinch to zoom or granular zoom is no longer a feature unless I pay
again… cringe
Crashing and overheats phoneApp keeps crashing and opening up to Image Rescue after attempting macro photos. It also makes my 12 pro max get HOTTTT fast.
Holiday Discount?Is there any way to get a discount on the lifetime purchase for Christmas?
Good but lacks long exposure feature.Was surprised to find another app or the native Camera app needed for long exposures.
At this price, am disappointed to need to buy and learn another app for that.
Still missing a important featuresYou still cannot set exposure compensation, iso etc digitally, like a on a numeric pad. Dragging controls may be intuitive but is
very slow and imprecise
