I remember the days when I needed to carry my phone and camera with me. Once my phone was able to take pictures at a higher resolution than my camera could, life got much more streamlined. The camera app that comes with our iPhones is great, but sometimes you want something a little different. Whether it's different features or just a change in layout, these are the best apps out there for your all-in-one camera needs.
Highest scored apps in the category
Use this great camera app in any low-light situation
The low-light capture features are intuitive and can be used to take some great photos not possible with the stock iPhone camera. And the app can even be used on the Apple Watch. You can use the device as a remote control for the app and even view the images after they are captured.
Capture and create amazing photos with a new camera app that does the work for you.
Microsoft Pix offers automatic adjustments between shots, face recognition, best image selection, live image turned into a looping video, hyperlapse for stabilizing videos, and filter effects, photo cropping, and rotation options.
A better camera app
This extremely popular app is another great take on what the native camera should be. Adjust focus and exposure separately. Turn your flash into a continuous fill light. You get 6x zoom, alignment grid, stabilizer, timer, and more. For use after the fact, this app has scene modes like a digital camera (such as Sunset, Beach, Portrait, etc.) in addition to lots of other editing and effect features. You really can't go wrong with this one.
This groovy app is perfect to capture an out-of-the-ordinary photo
This wildly popular app allows you to take a wholly different type of photo. Choose the “camera lens” and “film” within the app, and then shoot. The results are artsy, retro, fun, and unpredictable. In fact, I would say this app is pretty much responsible for starting the retro iPhone camera app trend.

The only camera app you'll ever need
