I’m pretty sure the pictures say for themselves which are with phone camera and which are the app. I need to play with it some more still but it’s a lot better then the phone

Brilliant! I particularly like the Chromis photo bomb, haha. Appreciate the share. Any objections in using some of these photos on the website or app store?

If anybody is interested in writing a review for the app on the store, that would be super helpful as the only reviews that exist now are a mixed bag of results from version 1.0. For those new to the thread, basically version 1.0 wasn't powerful enough and that made a lot of people cranky. Hoping this new update resolves all those issues and restores the trust that I'm not selling snake oil.

It's official, version 2.1 will have reset to defaults and brightness intensity reduction.
Hope to have a test build out to you guys soonish. :-D

I'd love to test. I have access to an iPhone 8 Plus and a filter from AquariClip for comparison shots. I can write up a review for you on the iTunes store as well. Thanks! (I signed up to beta test on your website, FYI)

Thanks, @zachxlutz . That'll be super cool to see. AquariClip is very cool so if the app gets even close that'd be nuts.

How about some R2R love in the app? Maybe we can help you promote it..

Thanks for sharing! You are working off the wrong beta. Update your app in Testflight to 2.0(3) to get the red bar back moving.

Updated and works perfectly....will get some more pics up!!

How do i get the app?

Salty1962 · Oct 26, 2017

Where to get the Android app?

zachxlutz · Oct 26, 2017

I was invited to test out the Aquarium Camera app for my new iPhone 8 Plus yesterday. I took some quick shots when I had a free moment last night. No editing, no white balance adjustments, etc. Great tool. I can't wait to set up the phone on a little tripod and get some better shots.

John,

Sorry, my work has been crazy since I joined the Beta. I have not had a chance to use the app or provide any feedback. I hope that I am able to do so over the weekend.

Absolutely brilliant shots! Thanks so much for sharing. I love your tank.
Any objections to using a few of these on the website or app store?
