The app was designed to bring your iPhone's camera experience to the new level. DLSR-like focus control, Extra Zoom-In (40x, 60x or even 100x for Telephoto cams), Physical cameras access, Video Stabilization, HDR and custom video formats. To be more creative.
I love the DLSR-like feature. It’s outstanding. I also love the ability to zoom up to 100x. Does it support to take bokeh? I mean the real bokeh as DLSR camera, not the “fake” one on current mobile phone generation.
Congrats on the launch! I use an iPhone 15 Pro Max. Like some others here, I own a larger DSLR/Mirrorless but do most capturing from my phone. Here is some feedback from using your app:
- Onboarding is good but could be even shorter
- $20 one time payment for Pro is a little steep, I do like the free trial option though
- Experienced some weirdness when toggling from Video to Photo after enabling 4k@60
- Single finger zoom is awesome, would love to have some deeper haptic feedback here to make it a bit more tactile
- I would love to have quick toggles on the center frame box, nothing crazy just rapid toggle between modes/settings
- General optimization would be nice to make it even faster
- A “Zen Mode” with only the capture button and center frame box, would be really nice

Hello Craig!
I must admit that I like your feedback!
1. Onboarding - it will be refactored, because it's a bit overengineered I thinks so.
2. Perhaps, we need to rethink the pricing strategy. Let's say 14.99 - lifetime, 9.99 - annually, 0.99 - monthly, what's your thoughts about that?
3. That's because the Video Formats which is designed for taking Photos is normally operates at 15 FPS, but I could deal with that. It's already planed for the further releases.
4. Haptic feedback - sure, It's all manageable. But during the video recoding the haptics will be turned off to not affect the video.
5. Quick toggles - I've been thinking about that, but I've tried to keep it simple without overlapping the UI elements. And there'll be soon an ISO and Exposure management control connected to the center box. I'll keep in mind about the formats and some extra controls.
6. General optimization - will came after the v1.1.206 which with contain RAW and TIFF formats.
7. Zen Mode - I like that. I think I can be activated by triple tap or by a button "Enter Full Screen mode".
I really appreciate your time and your impact! I'd like to say thank you by turning on an extra discount for a Pro Mode Lifetime till the end of the week for all your country (of course if you would tell me where are you from).
Have a good day today, Craig!

Thanks! I think you are on the right track. I would recommend looking at all the top camera apps in the App Store to see how they price their plans. Personally, I would rather have the option to buy it for life or simply extend my trial for $0.99. The haptics would be all about the engaging feel of using your app. I would guess that most of your users have a real interest in photography and/or own/used a DSLR and enjoy the tactility of getting a shot focused or zoomed in.
The app is staying on my phone. Looking forward to future builds!
