Review summary

Zerocam receives praise for its minimalist design, encouraging users to capture raw photos without distractions and having appealing image style and animations. However, many users criticize its subscription model, the absence of key camera features like zoom, focus, lens switching, and the limited number of photos allowed without subscribing. The app also faces optimization issues across devices and concerns about image quality. Though updates are gradually improving features, users overwhelmingly desire a one-time purchase model and richer camera capabilities for better value.

Pros

Simple and minimalistic design that encourages pure photography with no complex settings or filters.
Good image style with vibrant color production and clean pictures without excessive sharpening.
Nice startup animation and smooth user interface animations.
Ongoing updates gradually adding more features.
Encourages users to focus on capturing moments without distractions.

Cons

Subscription-based model criticized; many users prefer one-time payment instead of recurring charges.
Lack of essential camera features such as zoom, switching to selfie camera, tap to focus, lens selection, RAW photo capture, exposure control, and video recording.
Limited photo usage with only 5 photos per day without subscription.
Poor optimization for various Android models, missing support for multiple lenses and zoom levels.
Image quality concerns; photos are grainy, white balance issues, and processed despite claim of zero processing.

2025-01-25	Wa*****	I like the project, the effort that the devs put on the quality of this app and I'm aware that monetizing your project while being an indie developer is important, but I can't even take a photo without the app ask me to signup for a free trial, IMHO it was not a very smooth onboarding. Also, why throwing me off the app to make an "in-app" review literally after the welcome tutorial, given that I could barely use it?

2025-01-08	Bl*****	The new version doesn't work for me, the pre release one did. Edit: it now works, the issue was that it was trying to take me to a subscription screen and it wasn't loading for some reason. Rating stands for the subscription... I would understand a one time purchase, but a subscription??? Why? 🧐 It's supposed to not have features, it's supposed to not have any ai. WHY ARE YOU ASKING FOR A SUBSCRIPTION?

2025-01-06	Co*****	Lovely concept, flawed implementation. No ability to swap to selfie camera, recurring charge for an app that is meant to be minimal. It doesn't feel worth the sub for me, so I'll be cancelling the trial. Beautiful startup animation though ♥️

2025-01-05	Ni*****	If you want a terrible camera app, this is a good choice. The whole idea is just dumb. Why do you want photos that are not processed? Photo processing makes photos better. Also you can only take 5 photos a day, you can only use the main camera and you can't record videos. This app is pointless.

2024-12-20	La*****	Hey #zerocamteam in using zerocam since 2 weeks and it's color production is so good ,it's vibrant and eye pleasing...but only one thing is missing and it's tap to focus. If you add this feature in future updates it will be best camera app out there ( without affecting your vision for zerocam)❤️✨

2024-12-03	Ma*****	I like the style of the photos, but the app is not yet optimized for Android phones. I understand that Android phone models are diverse, but I think flagship phones could get support for their primary lenses. For example, on the iPhone 15 Pro Max there are zoom options for each lens, but on the S23 Ultra only offers 1x and 2x while it has 3x and 10x lenses.

2024-12-01	Ab*****	ZERO cam ZERO development ZERO image quality ZERO stabilization It just feels like it was created using one of those ZERO code solutions as a proof of concept that they can make the camera work on Android. It is quite possible that it is not even using Google's camera APIs. It might simply be screen grabbing like most social media apps do. The image quality is terrible. I have used the iOS version of the app and the images have a distinct look to them. It does not seem to be doing that here.

2024-11-22	Se*****	I like the app, pictures are clean without excessive sharpening. My only request would be the ability to add geo location to the pictures.

2024-11-16	Aa*****	One time payment would be better. Still testing the app. But never going to be a subscriber to a camera app! Zero was not an option or there would be zero stars for this. Who gave you this idea. Hipster is a fading feeling. One star for the app icon. Please improve. The competition is tough.
