Moon Atlas, smarter local moon photo alerts, and a redesigned Moon Calendar. Lunar landmarks on a rotating 3D moon, get reminded when conditions are good for moon shots
Moon Capture is a dedicated camera app designed to help you photograph the moon and night sky more clearly.
Instead of relying on generic auto settings, Moon Capture gives you purpose-built shooting modes for full moons, crescents, supermoons, and stars. The app combines guided camera controls with tools that help you get cleaner, sharper results directly from your iPhone or iPad.
Features:
• Dedicated shooting modes for different lunar and night sky conditions
• Smart exposure assistance for easier framing
• Manual-style moon capture settings tuned for detail
• Exposure bracketing for difficult lighting
• Multi-frame stacking for cleaner low-noise results
• Zoom controls optimized for lunar framing
• Moon info and phase guidance
• Built-in gallery for reviewing and managing captures inside the app
Whether you are shooting a bright full moon, a thin crescent, or a darker night sky scene, Moon Capture helps make the process simpler and more reliable.
Best results:
Moon Shot features work best on iPhones with telephoto camera systems, where the app can capture more lunar detail.
Devices without telephoto lenses can still use the app, but close-up moon results may be limited.
