HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (31 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Bulb, Raw, Open Exposure, Best Multi-tool piece of software for photos for all Apple iOS devices

Highly recommend getting this, but pay careful attention to settings. Shoot in raw, use timer mode, set up on stable flat surface or tripod.

★★★★★Jul 24, 2026
I love this app

I can’t say enough good things about this app. It’s a life saver when I come across a waterfall or when the night sky is calling. It’s easy to use, has a lot of options and turns iPhone photos into magic.

Brought back my passion for film photography ❤️

Look, I did the photography thing. Manual camera. Developed my film. Etc, etc. Back then, there were no digital SLR’s. In fact, digital cameras were just point and shoot devices, a novel new thing to hook up to your powermac G4. Sure there was photoshop but digital art was still generally viewed warily by the art community at large. With manual cameras, you gotta painstakingly adjust every single thing, from the camera itself, to your own physical position, and take things you can’t control into consideration; ambient lighting, ugly backround objects, etc. In the end you can’t just edit the photo and erase this or that. My point? I CAN NOW USE MY PHONE AND TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS AT NIGHT UTILIZING THE SAME SKILLS AS I DID WITH A MANUAL CAMERA. AND THEY ARE AMAZING. Thank you slow shutter devs. You have truly made an impact on my life.

Store description

Slow Shutter Cam brings new life into your device's photo toolbox by letting you capture a variety of amazing slow shutter speed effects that you only thought you could get with a DSLR. Continue reading to learn more about this unique app! ----------------------- • Featured numerous times by Apple: - App Store Essentials: Camera & Photography - Photography for Professionals - Total Control - Extraordinary Photo Apps - Best New App ----------------------- "It’s one of those rare photography apps that creates effects that few others are capable of, and it does it easily and with better results." — Marty Yawnick, Life In LoFi ----------------------- How many times have you tried to capture artful images with your iPhone camera but were left wishing you had more features to work with? Slow Shutter Cam puts an end to mere snapshots and gives you some of the most powerful features of a DSLR camera. All this, in a package that fits in your pocket. Slow Shutter Cam offers three capture modes to capture unique images: MOTION BLUR: Equivalent to the shutter priority mode on a DSLR, the Motion Blur mode is perfect for creating ghost images, waterfall effects or suggesting movement in your photographs by adding a blur. LIGHT TRAIL: The Light Trail mode allows you to 'paint' with light, show car light trails and fireworks or capture any other moving light in a unique way. Unlike shooting with a DSLR and being tied to specific rigid settings to obtain good results, the Light Trail mode takes care of the essentials, letting your creativity soar! LOW LIGHT: In low light conditions, this capture mode allows the camera to accumulate every photon of light hitting the sensor. The longer the shutter speed, the more light it will accumulate. You can even fine-tune the result using the exposure compensation slider to achieve the exact effect you want! Highlights: • Unlimited Shutter Speed and manual ISO • Option to resume capture and create multiple exposure photos • Real time live preview - See the result in real time • Innovative 'Freeze' and ‘Blur Strength’ controls • Tap to adjust focus/exposure • Time-lapse Intervalometer • Apple Watch support and handy Self-Timer • Full resolution support on every devices • Camera Control support (iPhone 16) With Slow Shutter Cam on your iPhone you get the features of a DSLR camera with the convenience of a device that you can drop in your pocket and take with you wherever you go.
