I don’t love that the stock app always adds a bit of HDR post-processing. What apps do you use daily?

Looking for some free or cheaper options without insane yearly costs

Honestly in love with the new wider aperture

I bought the iPhone 17 in 2025 and was regretting my upgrade after the iPhone 18 camera features were released. My husband informed me of this app which was created by the guy who Apple took in for the iPhone 18 camera features. It basically has everything you need from ISO, WB, focus adjustments to Shutter Speed. I’m so glad I didn’t have to pay $1,000+ for a phone upgrade, just a yearly subscription to this app. I’ve been having so much fun at the images I can create I wanted to share here.

Hi! Sharing some pictures I took in Shenzhen using the NoFusion app on my iPhone 17 Pro. Still learning something new all the time! :)

There’s a serious improvement in image quality from my 13 Pro Max. Very excited to have more time playing with the 18 PM. The bars are a patient subject, but I’m especially looking forward to trying out some portraiture.

Had I known I was going to be there, I would have brought my good camera, but all I had was my iPhone 15 Pro. Only edits are small adjustments in Lightroom and Topaz DeNoise.

What I really like about iPhone 18 pro is forcing the lens that is being used. If I added a solar eclipse film on 17 pro telephoto it would jump over to the main sensor.
I’m impressed how clear the A4551 cluster came out even though it’s a cropped digital zoom

I love Live Photos sometimes…

I took a little road trip at the end of September and it gave me a chance to explore the new camera. I think it does very well overall. All photos were taken by hand, and lightly edited on the stock camera app. Photos are from Utah & Colorado. Let me know what you guys think!
