The Halide Camera app has been updated with new Siri voice shortcuts, a new 3D Touch shortcut to open in selfie mode, and a greatly reduced download size thanks to Swift 5.
Halide is a groundbreaking app for deliberate and thoughtful photography. With high-end tools, and a beautiful UI designed from scratch for iPhone 8 and iPhone X, Halide is your go-to camera when you want to really take a photo rather than a quick snapshot.
Features: - Beautiful, intuitive gesture-based interface - On iPhone X and later, a custom-designed UI that is completely usable with one hand - Manual Depth Capture. Take portraits of pets and objects on iPhone XR. - Focus peaking and powerful manual focus - Full manual controls including shutter speed, ISO and white balance - Live histograms for perfect exposure* - Captures RAW, TIFF, HEIC or JPG for the best quality shots* - Grid overlay with built-in level - Quick-review of your last few shots - Intelligent automatic and manual mode
What's New In This Version: This update makes a ton of small improvements. Highlights include:
* Added Siri Voice Shortcut configuration directly in Halide. Go to "Advanced Settings," and tap "Setup Siri Shortcuts." * Added a Siri Voice Shortcut to open the reviewer * Added a Siri Voice Shortcut to launch in selfie mode * Added a 3D Touch shortcut to open Halide in selfie mode * Fixed a clipping issue in the Apple Watch app * Fixed the location setting switch not taking effect right away
Finally, we've cut our download size by 50%. Eight megabytes may not seem like much, but that could fit all of Windows 3.1.
You can purchase Halide Camera from the App Store for $5.99.
