The Camera Zoom app in the App Store has the volume button shutter, I don't know why Snapture would get rid of it, it's the best feature!

PS... Is there a difference in the Snapture from Cydia and iTunes store or did you guys find it to be the same? Thanks!

Ours is not the same type of app but we would love for all of the techies to try out iMake Memes and give some feedback. We realized that another Meme app was in review at the same time then they delayed our approval for our "keywords" apparently being the same as the other app and then our app came out 3 days later. It is frustrating as a developer but we would love any feedback to help improve ours or if anyone has ideas about how to become more competitive in the iTunes store. We considered Cydia for another app that has been in review for a month, but just not sure if that's the way to go. I wish they had "stages" of review so you would at least have an idea of what's going on with the process. I'd love to hear from any of you guys! Thanks for the feedback and for being apart of a fun community (most of the time!)

I just downloaded this app and I really like it. It is 10x better than the standard camera app - and all the features work very well.

Nice app, but it's way slow to start up. I wish it booted up at least as fast as the builtin camera app.

3.1 added APIs and reduced camera restrictions, it seems, so apps like this probably require 3.1 to use those APIs.

An App Store app can't be on Cydia, it's part of their agreement with Apple.

Yuck, this app is only for 3.1 !! I'm assuming All of us who are jailbroken are not on 3.1?

do you think apple will have a lot of their new apps only compatible with 3.1+ in order to incline people to give up their jailbreak?

I can't ever give up my jailbreak. Backgrounding and being able to SMS anywhere from my phone are Simple features alone that I can't imagine living without.

Anyone else with me?

Is it possible to adjust exposetime ? I find I find it very difficult taking photos that has a bright background.

Snapture makes camera genius look like junk. Trust me. You want it. It's worth 20 bucks easily. At 2 it's a steal. Get. It. Now.

Can anyone compare this app to Camera Genius? I bought that one awhile ago and don't know if the hype behind snapture is a reason to switch.

My cydia version works fine. The app version is only for 3.1 and not as complete as cydia's. Good luck !!!!

So what happens to the cydia users that bought this? Are we left in the dust? I'm happy that they finally made it into the app store, but feeling a bit cheated especially since I've supported them for a couple of years now.

Any other cydia users feeling burned?

Did they drop the ability to snap a shot with the volume button?

Snapture has a demo which I tried on Cydia. I liked it, but never enough to pay for it.

I was very happy when it came out on the Appstore. The $1.99 introductory price is great, and I'm so glad I got it.

It is alot better than the Camera App or any of the other camera apps I've tried. The multishot mode works great as does the level. A big plus is the in app picture-in-picture preview. It allows you to look at the last 4 pix and delete or email the ones you want.

It's a worthy replacement for the Camera App. Get it while its only $1.99
