My Fave App for photographing waterfalls

I learned about this app through iPhone photo academy. It is now the only app I use to photography the many waterfalls and streams found in Tennessee.

Astrophotography

I only use this app for Astro photography, and when I get the focus locked it works wonderfully. The only thing that would make this app perfect is being able to manually set the focus with a slider rather than having to lock on to a distant object. When I’m taking pictures of the stars somewhere there is no distant light source, it is very difficult to set the focus to the right distance. Having an exposure slider would also be nice but it isn’t as big of an issue. I would also like to be able

Wonderful for ICM!

I’m really enjoying the app. It’s great for experimenting with ICM photography. I’ve created some beautiful art pieces that are wonderful when I don’t have my DSLR with me. Highly recommend the app. It’s great to experiment with.

Great little app

You can do amazing things with this little app and your imagination. I’ve been using it for years in my classroom highly recommended.

Best slow shutter app !

Have tried many other apps. This one works the best, without even connecting to internet while using like other apps. No app crash. Amazing

Just WOW

I’m so completely obsessed with how amazing this app is. So much that I wish it was available on iOS AND android!! Will this ever happen?? **UPDATE** Still using this app daily for my art and creative endeavors and it never disappoints!!! I swear it’s one of the only reasons I still have an iPhone!!! Speaking of…any android versions in the future!? Thanks again for a great app!

Thanks for the updates and the new features (or, upcoming)

It’s the right time to revamp the effort to make this application better. Wish you guys all the best luck!!

Perfect, but….

Options for 48mp and proraw images would be a fantastic addition.

Didn’t meet my needs

To have to put your phone on a tripod to prevent any movement not helpful as I primarily use for waterfalls when out hiking. Great customer support when I inquired about why my entire photo was blurry.

doesn’t work

usedthis app a month ago and worked great! tried it last night and nothing shows up on camera, only black. also deleted app and reinstalled, still doesn’t work, restarted phone and it works, doesn’t work for light painting that well however

One big problem

With this new version if you’re m shooting tiff format the first exposure works fine. But when I shoot the next exposure the app crashes in the middle of the exposure this happens repeatedly. My only work around is to take my first shot, then quit the app , launch it again and repeat the process for every shot

Clean intuitive App

Love the app and the control it provides. Would be amazing to have integrated with the Fjorden grip to be able to cycle through and set options would make it perfect

So slow it's good

I’m really happy with this app has never glitched on me & I’ve used this app with a few different iPhones. Iphone 4S, 6, XR & 14. It has always performed as expected. I do wander why the exposure and focus lock reset after an intervalometer session is complete.

Remote blue tooth shutter

In my apple 15 pro max my remote blue tooth shutter works fine but using this app it raises the phone volume! Can you fix this? I turned on the volume shutter and the remote trigger works, thanks.

Awesome app

Truly enjoy the app. Gives so much power of creating unusual and inspiring images. Thank you!

Amazing!

It’s a great app for the price it’s at. If you want to make professional looking photos then this is the perfect app. The in app editor matches the apps quality, and it’s easy to navigate around.

Greatest for ICM

This is my favorite app for doing intensional camera movement. I like it for doing blur with single or double exposure. Since my DSLR cannot do multiple images, this is my go to for overlaying multiple images along with movement in my ICM photos.

Great intentional movement app

Works just the way I want. My only issue with the app is that it does NOT include a 2:3 ratio Aperture option. Why does no one offer a 2:3 option? 35mm cameras have been around forever, so why not 2:3????

Nice app

Nice, clean app. More control over the camera than the Apple camera.

Best for ICM and Light painting

Really pleased with this app. Like the way you see the results as they render, and the way you can pause, save interim file, and continue to layer effect. I have submitted several support questions and they have been responded to quickly. Only thing I would put on my wish list is the ability to save result as a RAW file.

Wonderful App

I am relatively new to IPhone photography since I have been using a Mirrorless Fuji Camera for many years. Recently became interested in ICM and long exposure photography. I find ICM very difficult on a regular camera. Came across an article on YouTube describing this App for photographing light trails. Very simple to use App with very reasonable price. Very rich content. We need more developers with such good products which are simple to use and reasonably priced. Thank you.

Love it!

Great app, plain and simple.

Perfect App

This is what I need to take a photo 🤣

Top App

Wonderful control over exposure and light effects. Love it.

My Go To App for Abstract Photography

For the past couple of years, I’ve been working with ICM - International Camera Movement/Abstract photography. SlowShutter is hands down the App to use. Actually gives better results than my so called real camera. It’s used by many members of the ICM photographers group.

Be sure to buy the right app… This one!

There are two slow shutter apps. This one is the one you want to buy. I bought the other by mistake first. 👎🏻 So save yourself the hassle and buy the app from Cogitap Software.

Nice app

Nice, clean app. More control over the camera than the Apple camera.

It works!

Works well on my iPhone X. Probably works better with iPhone 13/15, as their cameras are much better.

An effective tool

It is easy to use and gives very good results. I have tried other long exposure apps and this is the best. Five stars. ★★★★★

Awesome!

You can spend hours experimenting.

Works great!

Had an issue with the app connecting to my Apple Watch, but it was user error, phone was lying on the table instead of pointing at an object. Support for this app is awesome! Love this app too!

Shutter Timer

I wish you would change that to allow more than 60 seconds before the bulb option. Up to 2 minutes would be nice

By far my favorite

I have tried many long exposure apps from free to paid and this app offers the best settings and interface to me.

Find the instructions

I thought this app was a scam until I found the instructions and how to change shutter modes.

Brilliant tool for experimenting in time

Time lapse with long exposure, ICM (intentional camera movement) and straightforward long exposure photography is possible. Excellent application of frame integration on the temporal dimension.

Best App for ICM

If you’re into ICM Photography, this is your App.

love thos app

one of the most pushing-the-boundries photo apps for iphone!

Great tool and fun too

The creators of the app obviously I’ve put a ton of energy into it and I enjoy time to exposures it’s a capability that this app excels in. So many useful settings. Give it a try!

Review Slow Shutter App

It’s a decent app with quick shutter capabilities for nice sequence shots captures a broad effect of settings you can customize to your liking all in all I rate it a 5 even though it was a cheap purchase I was not let down.

Led POI light trails

This is a great app for capturing fire spinning and LED light spinning.

Great app

This is a great, easy to use and very user friendly app

Just what I need

I have used this app for years know and pretty happy with what it can do

Easy to use but pics are blurry

I got this for night time photography, but the iPhone11 camera seems to out perform every time. I haven’t found what this app is good for, but based on other reviews, I must be missing something.

2 Negative User Reviews for Slow Shutter Cam

Not updated well

They say they tried The app does 0.5, 1x and 4x only. It needs work

Not ideal for night sky photography

I adjusted everything, set up my tripod and dialed it for 30 second exposure. I currently have an iPhone 15 pro max. The standard iphone camera app is far superior at 3 SECONDS than this app and 30 full seconds on a tripod. I adjusted pictures quality and messed around with the editing software and still couldn’t get it anywhere near what the one shot I was able to get without touching the photo in post. Needs some major updates before they start charging. Hopefully they see this and I get a ref
