No AI. No magic.
The stock camera applies Smart HDR, Deep Fusion, noise reduction, sharpening and tone mapping to every shot. LibreCam turns off everything that can be turned off, and is honest about what cannot.
Shot with LibreCam.
Photographs made with the app and shared by the people who took them. Tap a frame to open it large.
Shot something good with it? Send it in.
The full size file straight from the app with the EXIF intact, plus the name you want the credit to read.
One tap. Two files.
A Bayer DNG for the edit: the true sensor readout, no fusion, no noise reduction, no tone mapping. And a HEIF for the share: one frame, developed by the hardware ISP.
Manual everything.
Focus, shutter, ISO, exposure bias and white balance, and the aperture on iPhone 18 Pro. Everything is automatic until touched; a dial holds its value the moment you move it. Three real lenses, 13, 24 and 77 mm. No digital zoom, ever.
Nine looks. Or build your own.
Fixed color recipes, applied to the HEIF as you shoot and live in the viewfinder. Build your own with dials in the Look Editor, import and export standard .cube files. The DNG is never touched.
On your wrist.
An Apple Watch remote: the shutter, your readouts, and a framing assist. The modern cable release, made for tripods, group shots and long exposures.
LibreCam Pro.
One purchase, no subscription. Your own looks and the camera on your wrist; the nine signature looks stay free.
Private by default.
Add-only Photos access, no account, no ads, no tracking. Optional location tagging is written into the photo on your device and never sent anywhere.
In the press.
Writers who have taken the app out and said what they found.
