What's new in Version 3
★ App icon
The
very first thing you’ll notice in Camera+ 3 is its shiny, new icon.
It’s essentially the same Camera+ icon that you’ve grown to know and
love… but better and much more polished.
★ Dramatically improved sharing
There
are two main improvements here… The first is that you can now share to
multiple services, or even multiple accounts on the same service, all at
the same time. The second big thing that you’ll notice with sharing is
the increase in speed. It’s now faster than ever to share your photos
online.
★ Multiple photo library import
We’re introducing a great
new feature where you can import multiple photos from your photo library
all at once. And we added several fine touches to the import panel.
Large thumbnails, zooming to view your photo large, and photo info will
help ensure that you’re choosing exactly the photos you want.
Note: Import is now done via the + button
★ Workflows
Sometimes
you want to shoot a bunch of pics in a row without having to think
about things like editing and sharing. And sometimes you want to do just
the opposite and edit and share each pic you take, right after you take
it. Workflows easily provide you with the flexibility to do it either
way.
★ Focus & exposure locks
Now you can lock the focus and
exposure of the camera, independently of each other. Photographers
looking for the utmost flexibility in shooting will love this new
feature because it enables all kinds of creative ways of taking awesome
shots.

★ APIs
We’ve created a few
comprehensive APIs for Camera+. These APIs enable people to integrate
Camera+ into other apps and to create web services that make use of the
many, many photos that have been shared by Camera+ users.
Several
prominent developers have already integrated Camera+ into their apps via
these new APIs. Check-out the WordPress, Tweetbot, Twitterrific,
Foodspotting, and Twittelator Neue apps in the App Store to see these
APIs in action.

We’re
a bit obsessive when it comes to user interface and user experience.
With Camera+ 3, we’ve reworked several details of the Lightbox to make
it even more usable. It’ll take a couple of seconds to get used to the
changes but we’re completely confident that you’ll love these
improvements almost immediately.
★ Create web link
Many of you
used to use the SMS sharing feature (now renamed to Message) for passing
web links along to others. Now we’ve got a much better, easier, and
dedicated way of doing it.
★ Tuned Clarity
Often imitated but
never duplicated, Clarity is one of the things that makes Camera+ what
it is. And now it’s even better, especially if you’re using an iPhone
4S.
★ VolumeSnap setting in menu
VolumeSnap is our birthright. That is all.
★ Status bar in Lightbox
In
previous versions of Camera+, we didn’t display the status bar (you
know… that thingy with the clock, battery level, etc at the top of your
screen) when you were in the Lightbox. Well, that’s all changed with
this version! Never again miss picking your kids up at soccer practice
because you were editing photos and had no clue what time it was.
★ Improved performance
We’ve
gone through painstaking steps to improve performance in several parts
of the app. It all feels a lot more fluid now. But don’t just take our
word on it… try it yourself and see how much nicer it is now.
★ Notifications
Find-out
about Camera+ updates, news, and contests. We’ve implemented
notifications so they’re not intrusive and they’re opt-in only.
★ Lotsa bug fixes
We’ve identified and fixed several bugs in Camera+. Thanks to all of you who’ve reported any issues you’ve experienced.
★ Various other subtle, but significant enhancements
