A recent iOS update broke Spectre, so we've released this update to fix things. We've also improved purchase validation when offline. If you're ever running into problems, please let us know at support@lux.camera, where each and every message is read by a person. - Team Spectre

This small update improves compatibility with iOS 26, and refreshes the icon. If you have any issues or feedback, let us know at support@lux.camera!

Welcome to Spectre 1.5.4! This update brings support to all of the latest and greatest iPhones — full 5× tetraprism support, extra tweaks and fixes and more. Spectre is still the best app for long exposures on iPhone, and we'll keep on making it better and great on the latest hardware. We hope you love this update — if you love our app, consider leaving us a review or rating in the App Store. It helps us a lot! - Ben & Sebastiaan from Lux

This update improves the experience if you only grant limited photo library access. It also fixes some issues with the interface on very small phones. Of course it also contains all the awesome stuff from our big 1.5 release! --- We're excited to launch this major update to Spectre, allowing you to capture long exposures up to 30 seconds! We've also improved support for the latest Apple devices. This upgrade is FREE to anyone who has already purchased Spectre. We're also adding a "Pro" unlock within the app that adds a few more goodies, such as a custom icon. Again, if you've already purchased Spectre, this doesn't unlock any new capture features. If you already paid for Spectre, upgrading to Pro just unlocks a few perks as a small thank you for supporting Spectre's continued development. We're excited to get this update out there, and we'd love to hear your feedback. Please let us know what you think by emailing support@lux.camera, or message us on BlueSky, Mastodon, Threads, Instagram, Twitter, or aldis lamp. And don't forget to tag your photos #SpectreShot for a chance to be featured! — Team Lux

This small update improves compatibility with the latest iPhones. On iPhone 13 Pro, the telephoto lens is properly labeled "3x" instead of "2.5x." We've also addressed other small bug bugs.

This small update fixes a few bugs in iOS 14.3. If you’re running an iPhone 12 Pro Max, you’ll find that the telephoto lens now properly displays 2.5x instead of 2x. If you have any bug reports or general feedback, please let us know at support@lux.camera.

If you're upgrading to iOS 14, this update should resolve any issues you might have if you set Spectre's photo access permissions to "Limited." We apologize if you run into an issue running Spectre for the first time after upgrading; you may be shown the opening tutorial launch, and then prompted for photo library permissions. The surprise release of iOS 14 caught us a bit off guard, so a bug fix didn't make the cut. We promise to do a better job planning around these surprises in the future. Unrelated, we have some exciting things to announce in the next few weeks. Make sure you're following @halidecamera on Twitter!

This update adds official support for the new iPhone SE! If you have any feedback, let us know through the link in the description. You can also reach out to @halidecamera on Twitter. Happy shooting! -- Ben & Sebastiaan

Thank you for supporting Spectre, Apple’s iPhone App of the Year of 2019!

We have an exciting year ahead! -- Ben & Sebastiaan

We couldn't have built the iPhone App of the Year without your kind words and support. We’re humbled by the recognition, your kind reviews and messages, and your beautiful images. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. This update fixes a crash that happens when iCloud has trouble syncing. We've also fixed a color bug in the "About" screen. If you have any bugs or general feedback, please let us know at support@halide.cam. -— Ben & Sebastiaan

This small update improves focus when shooting in low-light, and some localization bugs. But we've got bigger things in the works, so watch this space!

Grazie per aver reso Spectre un così grande successo! Grazie ai vostri commenti siamo riusciti a creare questo importante aggiornamento. La stabilizzazione dell'IA è ora disponibile per gli utenti di iPhone 7, 6S e SE! Gli scatti sono decisamente più precisi. Basterà attendere che si illumini "STABLE" (STABILE) per poi scattare. La stabilizzazione, durante lo scatto a scie di luce, è stata aumentata su tutti i dispositivi. C'è voluto un po' di tempo per ottenere il risultato che desideravamo senza compromettere la qualità, ma pensiamo che l'attesa ne sia valsa la pena. Abbiamo aumentato la risoluzione dei video salvati come parte delle foto live. Ciò significa più dettagli quando si vanno a modificare le lunghe esposizioni o quando si va a condividere il video. Non sapevi di poter condividere i video? Basta premere il pulsante Condividi nella parte inferiore dell'anteprima della foto. Per gli utenti con problemi alla vista, abbiamo sensibilmente migliorato il supporto vocale. Infine, abbiamo sistemato tante altre piccole cose. Abbiamo migliorato i metadata che salviamo nelle immagini, in modo che mostrino la durata corretta. Abbiamo corretto i problemi che facevano interrompere l'app. Insomma, l'abbiamo rimessa a nuovo. Ti piace l'aggiornamento? Hai risolto il problema che avevi? O semplicemente adori Spectre? Lasciaci un commento. Ci aiuterà molto. Se ci siamo dimenticati qualcosa, inviaci una e-mail a support@chromanoir.com, saremo lieti di aiutarti. Ben e Sebastiaan

Thank you for helping make Spectre such a success! We're excited to release this hefty update based on your feedback. AI Stabilization is now available to iPhone 7, 6S and SE users! Handheld shots will be significantly sharper. Just wait for "STABLE" to light up, and snap away. When shooting light trails, we've increased stabilization on all devices. It took some work to do this without compromising quality, but we think the wait was worth it. We've increased the resolution of the video we save as part of your live photo. That means more details when you go back to edit the long exposure, or share the video. You didn't know you could share the video? Just tap the movie-share button in the bottom of our photo reviewer. For our vision impaired users, we've significantly improved voiceover support. Finally, we've fixed a bunch of small things. We improved the metadata we save in images, so they show the right duration. We've fixed our top crash, and fixed some bugs in Dutch localization. More localizations are coming soon! Enjoy the update? Fixed an issue you had? Or just love Spectre? We’d love it if you left us a review. It helps us a lot. If we missed something, please email us at support@chromanoir.com, and we're happy to help. — Ben & Sebastiaan
