Sound arrives. Every effect now has a voice — fire crackles, wind moves past you, lightning cracks, and explosions land with real weight. All of it reacts to how you move. NEW EFFECT PACKS • Elements — Fire, Wind, Earth, Water and Lightning, five effects that answer your movement • Explosions now includes Bombs, a heavier, closer detonation alongside Fireworks EVERYTHING FREE FOR 3 DAYS Every effect is unlocked the moment you open the app. A countdown in the corner shows what's left, and you can tap it any time to keep the packs you want — individually, or all of them together at a discount. ALSO IN THIS VERSION • A what's-new card so you hear about new effects without hunting for them • Ad privacy controls, and policy links, in Settings • A blank screen now tells you what went wrong instead of staying blank • Steadier video recording when the encoder is under pressure • Fixes for the camera freezing after a full-screen ad

Two changes in this one — a fix and a new prompt. • Recording is much harder to break. If your phone's video encoder was already busy — another app using it, or the phone running warm — a recording could fail to save, and then keep failing until you closed and reopened the app. IllusionCam now switches to a backup encoder on its own and just records. • On first launch you'll see Apple's tracking permission prompt, just after the camera one. It only affects how relevant the ads are. IllusionCam works exactly the same whichever you pick, so "Ask App Not to Track" costs you nothing. Thanks for using IllusionCam.

This update is all about reliability. • The screen no longer dims or locks while you're shooting. Line up a shot, take your time — the display stays awake as long as you're in the app. • If the preview ever freezes, it now recovers on its own. Locking your phone, taking a call, or closing an ad used to be able to leave the camera stuck; now it comes right back. • Fixed a rare problem where the app could open to a black screen and stay there. • The camera permission prompt is handled more reliably on first launch.
