Description

Pearla is a camera app crafted by professional photographers for photographers, hobbyists and anybody who wants to apply a unique and timeless style to their iPhone photos "straight-out-of-camera".

Pearla ships with film simulations inspired by some of the most famous film stocks and a powerful engine to customise the look with "film recipes".

If you like to maintain the ability to edit the photos you take with Pearla, you can set it to shoot Raw + JPEG. Pearla will apply your chosen film simulation or recipe to the JPEG, and the raw will retain the data from the sensor.

Improve your composition skills with non-destructive tools such as grids, guides, histograms, B&W Viewfinder, and more.

Shoot fully manually and set your camera to varying levels of automation: ISO, shutter speed, exposure compensation, white balance -- everything you'd need to get the perfect shot from the camera that's always in your pocket.

If all that's not enough, like DSLR and mirrorless cameras, Pearla's interface is customisable. Toggle portrait mode or composition tools, Pearla ships with shortcuts to most settings in its extensive settings page, making it easy to adapt your camera to your shooting style.

Exceptional

Loved the simulations. Need B&W too.
Need the ability to import photos.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for the kind feedback! We are working on a couple of B&W simulations (among others). They are due for release later in March 2024 :)

Don’t Install!!

I find this misleading and a bad practice when you list the app as Free but people can’t even click a single picture unless they buy your subscription first. Uninstalling Right Away!

Developer Response ,

Dear Avi1419,
We're sorry you chose to give the lowest available rating to an app that you, admittedly, have not used.

Your comment that you can only take photos with Pearla after buying a subscription needs to be corrected. We offer a free 3-day trial of Pearla, during which you can assess the app and take as many photos as you like, and are not obligated to become a paying subscriber.

We're sorry you didn't take advantage of this offer.

We operate entirely transparently with our customers and follow Apple's strict guidelines regarding the appropriate labelling of our offerings.

The App Store has two settings: 'Paid' for apps that require upfront payment to download and 'Free' for apps that don't. Another setting lists all available in-app purchases for free apps, and the necessary subscription to use Pearla is indeed listed in that section of Pearla's product page.

As your accusations are not specific to Pearla, we have forwarded your comment to Apple for review.
