## Description

Halation is a straightforward camera app for Android. It gives you photo mode, video mode, and everything you&#39;d expect from a modern camera app -- without account signups, ad networks, or cloud uploads. <br><br>Built for people who want a fast, capable, and private camera that stays out of the way.<br><br>The app has no permission to access the internet. Android blocks any attempt to send data online, so your photos never leave your device unless you choose to share them.<br>Your photos stay on your device. You can share or transfer them whenever you choose, just like photos from any other camera app.<br><br>AVAILABLE NOW<br><br>• Photo and Video modes<br>• Front and back cameras, adaptive portrait and landscape layouts<br>• Manual aspect ratio selection, grid overlays, self-timer<br>• Live luminance histogram and overexposure zebras<br>• Burst mode by long-pressing the shutter button<br>• Time-lapse with configurable playback speed<br>• Exposure compensation (EV) with a vertical swipe<br>• Pinch-zoom across all supported lenses<br>• Extension modes (HDR, Night, Bokeh) where the device supports them<br>• EXIF preservation and customizable filename templates<br>• Optional geotagging (off by default; per-capture permission)<br><br><br>WHAT HALATION WON&#39;T DO<br><br>• Connect to the internet. Halation has no network permission, so it<br>  can&#39;t upload anything you capture.<br>• Show ads. Pay once for future Pro features -- no ads, subscriptions,<br>  or in-app store.<br>• Ask you to sign in. There are no accounts. Grant camera<br>  permission and you&#39;re ready to shoot.<br><br>ON THE ROADMAP<br><br>Tier 2 adds manual controls and RAW capture, including DNG support, manual ISO, shutter speed, aperture, focus and white balance. It also introduces focus peaking, custom picture profiles, guided panorama, external microphone support, and a home screen<br>shutter widget.<br><br>Tier 3 introduces computational Night Mode with burst stacking, frame alignment, and denoising. It will ship only when it matches the quality of your device&#39;s stock camera.<br><br>Beyond Tier 3, Halation&#39;s direction will be shaped by user feedback.<br><br><br>Built by orezeno.<br>Support and feedback: halation@orezeno.app<br>Website: https://halation.orezeno.app
