Camera+ iOS Photography App – Updated
Camera+ is a hugely popular camera replacement app and it’s just received a brand new update. It’s mainly a stability and bug killing update but we’ll let the team behind it, taptaptap, tell you about it in their own words, as follows:
‘This update is one of those stability releases that we all know and love. We’ve put the kibosh on a bunch of bugs and improved several little things that’ll make the whole Camera+ experience a bit better, especially with the shiny, new Lab that we added in Camera+ 5.
The app would sometimes crash when you tried to save photos edited in The Lab. That should be all fixed now.
Clarity Pro was getting a little too ambitious on occasion and he’d boost himself a tad more than the actually intensity level you set. We had a good talking to with him, and we now have an understanding and he promised it won’t happen again.
And speaking of Clarity Pro (and anthropomorphic app features), it seems like he and his older brother Clarity weren’t playing nice with each other. The way things were supposed to work was that if you had The Clarity scene set and then went to Clarity Pro in The Lab, it’d automatically be set to 100% intensity there (instead of 0%). That’s fixed now and we hope it doesn’t cause any confusion for those of you who’ve gotten used to it working the other way.
We killed a horrible, little bug where the app was crashing on launch for some people. There’s not much worse than being locked-out of your photos and we apologize for the inconvenience. The programmer responsible was forced to say 100 rosaries… and he’s an atheist, which made it all the more painful for him.
The Camera+ API has been fixed and is working smoothly again. This should fix any issues you were having with apps like Day One. Because we care.
Issue #605 has been resolved. We’d tell you more, but then we’d have to kill you’.
