About this APK

AstroCam - The Astrophotography Camera App is an app by SL/\SH in the Photography category. It has no native code, so it runs on any Android processor.

It asks for 2 permissions, 2 of them sensitive: camera and modify shared storage.

Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

This app helps you take long exposures of the stars, milky way and deep sky objects! You phone needs to support manual mode for the app to be able to run. If your mobile phone supports raw capture, you have the option to save the pictures in either JPEG or RAW. The app currently provides options to manually control shutter speed, ISO, number of light frames, and image save type (RAW/JPEG), which I would say are the most needed custom options for astrophotography. Focus is currently hardcoded to be at infinity. More options like focus adjustment, white balance adjustment, interval settings, timer, and others will be added soon! The app UI may not be the best. In the current form, I am prioritising stability and features over the looks. Feedback is welcome and highly appreciated :)
