The iPhone is the device that really started the mobile photography boom. Considering this, it’s no wonder that many developers are focusing on iPhone users first, and only later port their apps to Android. It’s no exception this time, with Android users of the 500px app receiving only a couple of minor changes with the latest update. iPhoneographers, on the other hand, can now enjoy Metadata editing straight out of the latest version of the iOS app.
The new 500px app can be downloaded for free from iTunes.
Then, there’s a new photo app for iOS called ‘Light Boost,’ and it promises to do exactly that. The app is specialized on low light situations, and will deliver better image quality than the original iOS photo app, according to its developers. In part, this is achieved through longer exposure times as well as lower resolution and lower framerates in video mode. As what other kinds of magic are at work here, we have no clue.
The app is currently discounted on iTunes and sells for US $0.99 during the Christmas season.
Also in the news today was VSCO Cam, which offers new filter presets for both iOS and Android users. See our news story here.
