Even though iOS5 came with lots of new and interesting feature, there weren’t significant changes to the camera app for the iPhone or iPad. Apple claim that they did not bring any new add-ons to the camera app in order to keep the everything simple enough.
Unfortunately, when using the iPhone camera you are often faced with the situation of having to change the settings to take a better picture but as the default app doesn’t come with that many settings, you need to install a custom app. Here is where King Camera iOS app comes in action, with plenty options for you to customize. Among these we mention the implementation of a timer and sound trigger. The best thing about King Camera is the fact that it is free to download.
When you open King Camera app for iOS 5, it will display a photo preview where you can control almost every aspect of the picture. If you want to take a picture without any custom settings, you just need to touch the button at the bottom of the menu, as you would do in the default iOS camera app. Let’s see what are the other features that King Camera comes with.
The Flash Settings from King Camera let you turn on or off the flash, though it can also be set to automatic. Another feature of the Flash Settings is the possibility to use the camera flash LED like a flashlight by turning it on for a definite time.
