This release is about timing — knowing when the light will work, and being ready when it does. PLANNER The new Planner tab shows your next three days of golden hour, blue hour, and dark-sky windows. Color-coded light windows tell you when the sky will actually deliver, and Luna gives you a clear verdict on each: shoot now, wait, or pick a different day. A sun-direction map shows you exactly where to point the camera. WIDGET, LIVE ACTIVITY & SIRI Put the next golden hour on your Home Screen. Start a planned-shoot Live Activity to see the countdown in your Dynamic Island. Or just ask Siri when your next golden hour is. LUNAR & ASTRO COACHING Plan around the moon. ShutterCoach tracks moon phase, illumination, and moonrise and moonset — and tells you when the sky is dark enough for Milky Way photography in your location. SKY FORECAST A smarter sky forecast powered by real atmospheric data, so "good light" matches what you'll actually see when you step outside. Also: faster Planner rendering and a handful of fixes. Photography is a skill. ShutterCoach keeps getting better at helping you build it.

This is the biggest ShutterCoach update yet. Three things that change how you use the app: CROSS-DEVICE SYNC Your critiques, challenges, streaks, and progress now sync across all your devices. Switch phones, get a new iPad, restore from backup: your photography journey follows you. XP & LEVELING Every critique, challenge, and streak now earns XP. Watch yourself level up from Snapshot to Master as your skills grow. Quality critiques earn more XP than quick ones. Check your rank on your profile, share level-up cards with friends, and get Luna's take on every milestone. PRO CAMERA A full manual camera built for learning. Control ISO, shutter speed, white balance, and focus with real-time coaching from Luna. Includes live histogram, focus peaking, composition guides, multi-lens switching, educational film filters, RAW capture, and 3D LUT import. All rendered on the GPU via Metal. Also new: - Light mode with accent color themes - Redesigned onboarding - Haptic feedback throughout - Accessibility and contrast improvements - Share extension reliability Photography is a skill. ShutterCoach keeps getting better at helping you build it.

Simple Pricing, No Subscription ShutterCoach now runs on a 5-day free trial and a one-time $9.99 purchase. Every feature, forever. No recurring charges, no tiers to compare. Guided Onboarding Luna walks you through your first 5 days with daily nudges and progress check-ins. You'll know exactly what to try next. Personalized Paywall When your trial wraps up, Luna shows you what you've accomplished: critiques completed, skills tracked, photos analyzed. Your stats, not a generic pitch. Polished Details Fixed the batch toolbar hiding behind the navigation bar in edit mode. Tightened animation on the paywall screen. Squashed a bug where the camera capture could bypass the paywall.

Batch Shoot Reports Import 5-50 photos from any shoot. Luna ranks your shots, you swipe to cull, and you get a detailed report on what worked and what to improve next time. Share Extension Send photos to ShutterCoach straight from your camera roll - no app switching needed. Lifetime Membership A one-time purchase option for founding members who want unlimited access forever. Bug fixes and performance improvements.
