Wow, being able to access Halide without having to unlock the phone is a game changer. I’ve been holding off upgrading my XS because I despise the HDR captures on newer iPhones, and while Halide can take better photos, unlocking my phone is frustrating when I’m on the trail with polarised sunglasses and a face covering. I didn’t realise iOS 18 was going to make it possible to use a third party camera app this way, very impressive.
