Nice to see the RISC OS app naming convention making a comeback.
codr7•1d ago
Right, way to expensive for what it offers.

I would consider paying the 1 year price for unlimited access.

If I was allowed to try it out before paying, that is.

nkjoep•1d ago
An app that doesn’t respect my mute settings and blasting sounds fx and music cannot be trusted.

0/10 immediately uninstalled and reported. total garbage.

You are not the target audience
sergiodelagarza•1d ago
Is the target audience here with us in this room?
gagzilla•1d ago
Same concern. Uninstalled. The other obvious concern is of not being able to test the actual app without a paid subscription.

Side note- I wish the AppStore would identify apps that are completely useless without a paid plan.

MrZander•1d ago
I'm surprised that isn't already against the app store rules. Seems like it totally undermines the idea of an app being labeled as "free".
Telemakhos•1d ago
Fourteen dollars a year apparently. Deleted at the purchase screen: I didn't even get a chance to take a picture with it, so I have no idea whether it was any improvement over the stock iPhone camera app.

stefan_•1d ago
Wow, a camera app to go with all the depressing gray apartments. And why all the fake noise?!
_aavaa_•1d ago
Gimmicky 3D model and absurdly expensive subscription make for an instant uninstall.
joshstrange•1d ago
It took me way too long to realize this wasn't a physical device but an app on your phone.
sleno•1d ago
Well I guess I'm the only one here with a positive review of this app. Kudos to them for trying something different.

It's functional, interesting, and well designed.

You don't need to pay the subscription to use the app so don't know what everyone's complaining about.

Spivak•1d ago
Agreed, this app is delightful. The look and feel is exactly where I'd hope design would go from here. It's colorful, the controls are intuitive and give good physical feedback. The exposure mapping is really useful as well as the focus mapping.

Extremely well done app.

>iOS only

It is Twenty-Twenty-Five.

izolate•1d ago
I see no issue with a solo dev wanting to specialize in the iOS app stack—the App Store is where all the money is anyway.
underlipton•1d ago
>Decade-old excuses and myths

It is, once again, Twenty-Twenty-Five.

x13•1d ago
$14.. for a camera app. oof. uninstalled before I could take a photo and judge the quality of the app.
azinman2•1d ago
Is $15 a lot?

I also agree I should be able to take a photo first and see. But $15 doesn’t seem that high?

mikestew•1d ago
$14/year, and no demo or other usefulness w/o a subscription? It's a bold strategy, I'll say that.
BugsJustFindMe•1d ago
On iOS you can just cancel and request a refund. Users don't really need a demo.
goldenchrome•1d ago
Ho ho ho the comments here are vitriolic. For anyone missing the point, Not Boring is an experimental studio that creates highly sensory everyday apps like weather and calculator.

It’s functional art.

h2zizzle•15h ago
Behind a paywall and platform-segregated. I guess even the Mona Lisa is behind a velvet rope?
minitech•1d ago
For anyone else who’s curious to see this app in use but isn’t willing or able to install it, here’s a convenient link to a random video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-CT9McJF4s&t=2m57s

this is just an advertisement for an app https://notbor.ing/plans avoid.

build in camera apps are already superior...
