this episode of TechnoBuffalo is brought to you by domain.com what's going on guys the markings hanging from TechnoBuffalo and we showed you guys our top 5 photos and videos after android and today we're going to be showing you guys our top picks for iOS so let's go ahead and get started now the first one on our list is manual now for a dollar 99 cents manual offers full manual controls for the iPhones camera now you'll be able to control settings like shutter speed ISO focus and white balance but there are other cool features as well that you won't really find on the iPhone stock camera app like an exit Viewer a fill flash mode in case you don't want to use the flash and you'll also see live monitor for automatic exposure values which in this case if you've ever used the DSLR before that'll help you figure out whether your shot is properly exposed or not now if you want something more complex and a camera app that will let you take greater advantage of the iPhones camera manual is a great choice the second one our list is after light it's $0.99 from the App Store and what's awesome about F the light are the plethora of editing effects and filters that you can add onto your pictures you'll also be able to add borders and frames to make your photos look even more unique you can mix and match filters and make your own presets which I think makes afterlight stand out from the rest of the editing apps found on iOS now there are in-app purchases to get your new filters and overlays and frames and I think they're worth it especially if you're a big Instagrammer you have your basic editing tools to crop rotate or add vignette to your photos there's also a built-in camera app which is pretty similar to manual you'll get manual controls for your ISO your focus and shutter speed but the UI isn't as detailed nor as good-looking as manual I personally use a free light so I can make my images look better for Instagram like I would use their borders and I can square copy it so my sixteen by nine pictures would fit in Instagram better moving on to number three we have vsco cam now what's awesome about vsco cam unlike afterlight is the ability to link my visco account on their server so any in-app purchases I made on my Android device or my iOS device will be linked under one account I don't have to buy the same filter twice which is pretty neat it saves me the headache and the time and the money but how is an app in general it offers a variety of filters and you can actually buy a few more within the viscose store I bought mostly every filter packed the app has for sale and I absolutely think they're worth it some filters are subtle and some change the overall look but I found that the visco filters are better than Safa views on iOS I use vsco cam and after light together whenever I post something on Instagram I use vsco to color my photos and I actually use after light like I just said earlier to add square borders and add a bit of a texture overlay to my photos vsco cam is free from the App Store give it a try and let me know yes thing number four is hyperlapse now with addition of time-lapse in iOS 8 a lot of my friends and family started using time-lapse feature on their stock camera app and they actually started posting their videos online now what's also about hyperlapse is you have control on how fast or normal your time lapse will look and then automatically stabilize your shot for you so it isn't jittery now over Thanksgiving I actually gave hyperlapse a try and found it to be super stable I was going around downtown San Francisco I was holding the phone for about 20 minutes which was quite a while and but it was totally worth it though there were moments where my hands were shaking and the roads were bumpy but when I exported the video it was really stable I was using the 6 plus so I'm sure oh is had a part in that too but seeing that the video was really stable won me over hyperlapse is free from the app store give it a try and start shooting epic time lapse let me stop this video for just a quick second and thank our friends over at domain.com domain.com is the place to go when the next great

with in-app purchases but just to give you guys a brief summary of what the app is it's like visco for videos now I say that because of the filters you can add to your videos it gives my videos very film-like effects that you wouldn't be able to achieve unless the footage is color graded on a computer now I bought all the filters that were available for $4.99 when I first downloaded the app and chromic actually recently added new features like the ability to change contrast saturation highlights and exposure which has more fine-tuning than ever before the overall UI is super simplistic the tuning for each category is all swipe-based so it's really easy to navigate through the filters and settings so if you're looking for a great video app companion to color grade your footage on your iPhone chromic is the way to go it's free so give it a try and let us know what you think of the app anyways that's it for this video guys make sure to check out our top five photo and video apps for
