About
Better Camera is a manual photography app for iPhone. Manual ISO, shutter, focus, and white balance, plus 10 film simulations with real grain rendered through a Metal shader. No AI processing, no Smart HDR, no scene detection — what you see in the viewfinder is what you get in the photo. Built solo because the stock Camera over-processes and pro apps felt like full cockpits. HEIF, JPEG, lossless TIFF output. iPhone Camera Control + hardware shutter support.
