Obscura — Pro Camera for Negative User Reviews

✓ Pro Raw CrashApp crashes every time I select the pro raw format..Todd H BennettVersion: 2022.3

✓ Almost impossible to use - worthlessThe controls on this app are incomprehensible and, strangely, bear little resemblance to the App Store displays. The challenges don't arise simply from not being a pro photographer - the app interface and controls are simply not competently designed for easy interpretation and use. It's so worthless I would give it 0 stars if that were an option. Fortunately, it didn't cost me much and there is no periodic subscription charge that I have to cancel. MacLife Magazine gave this app a good review, but again, their description is not what you find on opening the app. Makes me wonder if I should respect the magazine any more as well..MvbmacVersion: 2022.9

✓ Portrait mode?I'm not sure this is just me but portrait mode doesn't do anything. It takes just a normal photo..Skywalker unVersion: 2022.6

✓ Photo capture failedAlways prompted to take pictures can not be saved.GOH+Version: 2022.5

✓ Very buggySo buggy it can't be used as a reliable camera. Will be requesting a refund. A few of the issues: Set to default to telephoto camera. It doesn't. Switch to 3x manually and it will show 77mm telephoto at "f/1.5" and incorrectly calculate exposure. Toggling 3x by switching lenses a bunch of times etc it will eventually display and use f/2.8 for telephoto lens. Set ISO and/or shutter speed to manual and it will go haywire; either sticking with the setting you've locked for a short time or randomly changing one or the other. It loves 1/121 and 1/17 shutter speeds and will constantly "lock" on those for no particular reason. Once it starts doing that it won't reliably let you adjust exposure manually again without restarting. Touching the main area at all will un-predictably bring up the library even when the touch couldn't possibly be perceived as a swipe. Sure you can turn it off but then what is the point of even having it. Probably one of the better UIs, but functionally not usable. Bummer 'cause I had high hopes. This on brand new Iphone 13 Pro with latest iOS (15.4). Spent 2 hours with it and done..GtrdoodVersion: 2022.7

✓ Good camera, but bad UXI like all the manual controls this app exposes, but the UI could use some improvement. The iconography can be very difficult to understand—some text labels would help greatly..CrgwbrVersion: 2022.7

✓ No privacy, hidden photosNeed to fix private photos, they’re not private at all..Morty BVersion: 2022.7

✓ Don’t like itRead the reviews though ide try it crashed on me 3 times takes forever for it to swap between front and back cameras not worth the ten bucks how do I get my money back.VatomykVersion: 2022.4

✓ MehTakes great pics when app actually stays open. After ios16 it just closes after you take a pic. No reset helps. Wasted money..CeemaximusVersion: 2022.12

✓ I want my refundI had a Canon mirrorless camera, this app doesn’t allow to set aperture. It’s set at one setting. Whatever happened to Manual settings. This is not an accurate app. I wanted to give a try but I’ll stick with Lightroom camera..Nikki746oVersion: 2022.3

✓ TerribleThis is the least intuitive app I’ve ever used. It’s actively infuriating..RAndie NewmanVersion: 2022.6

✓ Crashes on iPhone SE 2022I don’t have need for a high end phone, but wanted manual control and some way of getting a DNG from phone camera. While impressed by the UI, the app regularly crashes under iOS 16, often when deleting files. This also happens occasionally while taking photos. This affects real world usability a lot. Modern, Native feeling & Customizable, Crashes too frequently..PianimaSoundVersion: 2022.12
