Paid Nagware
Since Apple refuses to surface a manual focus control, we get to sift through garbage like this. Constant pop-ups nagging for reviews and repetitive "tips" that wouldn't be necessary if the UI wasn't terrible. Shooting pictures is very slow and it always records five images for some reason, with four of them always having completely unusable exposure, unless shooting in the "zero" mode, which seems to have identical image treatment to the standard mode. Settings are clunky, often get "stuck," and lack precision. At least it has a manual focus control, but look to the other options instead. This one is clearly "cheaper" than others for a reason.
Updating my review because despite having already left a review, it is *still* nagging me for one.

FACELIFT maybe?
The “flow” is aged, and NOT as intuitive as the other “pro” apps. I own and use them all. To survive, you must evolve …
Yellow location text in photo
I thought I would take a few photos with ProCam and I find when I get them on the computer that there is hard stamped yellow location, time and date info in the photo itself with no way to remove it total BS. I’m deleting the app immediately unless there’s a fix for this, but I can’t find one online.
Settings don’t stay
When I change the iso or shutter speed, the flash on gets overridden

Garbage - No manual control on selfie mode
This is pure garbage. Just stick w Apple camera. Full control in all shooting modes. No Fstop/aperture controls - no manual controls when shooting in selfie mode. Or portrait mode A disaster.
Not worth it!!!!
It is the EXACT same quality as the normal apple camera. Do not buy!!
Asked me 100x to rate
I’ve had it 5 mins and have been asked 5 times to review.
Centers generative Ai
Prominent Ai
What ELSE can they charge for?
I feel like since buying this app years ago it’s nickel and dimed me to death and is still just a half baked app with ads that pop up all over for the developers other half baked apps.

Stop sending notifications!
I have my phone mounted to shoot photos using ProCam, and I get notifications like “Rate this App” while I’m trying to execute my shots. It disrupts my work flow because I have to unmount the phone to clear the notification. Cut it out FFS!
rate to get rid of the reminder
Stop popping up rating
Ads After Purchase
There are still dumb ads for some bs ai garbage even after purchasing the full app, additionally the app crashes when you delete a photo. Stay away from

Slowly got worse
I bought this to simply avoid auto zoom on selfies. Now its always auto zoomed Everytime. Always refreshed and when is the capture button still so damned small ?!
please fix this!! iPhone 17 bug
When using the 2x, the photo will automatically be -2ev even if the exposure is not adjusted
A bit scummy - and now broken on iPad
Listen, I know you need money and all, but do you really need to paywall things my camera can already do in an already paid app? The camera on my iPad is already capable of recording in 4k max, intentionally paywalling that is like making someone pay to open the freezer on their fridge. I guess that’s what I get for expecting mobile developers to be reasonable with monitization.
edit
As of an iOS update, the app is broken on iPad and oriented the wrong direction no matter what angle you have the device at.

Nice features…
when it works. Laggy, with windows that do not go away when they should, making you constantly reboot the app. The “zero, std, smrt” window HANGS unforgivably each time I change photo modes which blocks the preview, preventing use of the app. Sweet jebus.
