Manual Camera Control

[Renator41]

I’m looking for an app for manual control of my iPhone X camera. I do some astrophotography using it. Right now I am using Halide but the shutter speed is capped at 1/3 sec. I need something that will allow up to a minute or more. I’ve looked at many apps but most will say there is shutter speed and ISO control but they do not specify the ranges. Any advice?

Check out NatCap Camera.
Works well on light trails and silky water shots.

Sorry — but I cannot find an app called “NatCap Camera” at the App Store for iOS.

Sorry, predictive text on the phone.
It should be NightCap Camera.

Renator41, Just to specify, you are seeing a ⅓ sec or ½ sec cap of exposure duration is due to hardware limitations. Those are the absolute slowest exposure duration allowed from hardware. Whenever you are see longer, those are simulated, multiple buffers blended together. That being said there are many good long exposure apps on iOS App Store.
