Manual camera app for iOS 8 gives you full control: adjust ISO, shutter speed, manual focus, and white balance
Ever wished for full-on manual controls on your iPhone camera? So far, the option to control shutter speed and ISO were a no-go on Apple’s iPhone (and while some Android devices give you control over ISO, shutter speed is something that you cannot control on Android either), but with deeper access to the camera allowed by Apple in iOS 8, a new app has arrived finally opening up the iPhone to photographers with full-on manual controls.
The app has a very straightforward name - it’s Manual - Custom exposure camera, an app made by dev studio Little Pixels.

The app costs $1.99, but the price is well justified given all of this unique functionality that it offers.
Manual - Custom exposure camera is compatible with all iOS 8 devices: the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 5s, iPhone 5, as well as iPhone 4s; iPad versions 2 and newer are also supported, as well as the iPod touch 5th generation.
