## Review summary

Shutter offers free manual camera controls as a useful add-on to the iPhone camera, but it struggles with a cluttered UI, inconsistent hardware support, and reliability issues, including images not saving and occasional crashes. Reviewers want clearer exposure tools, accessible sliders, and greater stability.

### Pros

- Free to use with generally positive reception
- Provides manual controls beyond the stock camera (focus, exposure, ISO)
- Works as a lightweight add-on to the native camera for a more serious photography workflow
- Some users report clear photos or improvements over the stock camera

### Cons

- User interface is confusing and not intuitive, with dropdowns, auto ISO/exposure by default, hidden/help options
- Incomplete hardware support and lens compatibility (not all lenses shown on newer iPhones like iPhone 13)
- Captured images sometimes do not save or are not viewable within the app
- No clear shutter duration or manual exposure values (no numeric indicators; unreliable exposure controls)
- Occasional crashes when adjusting settings like white balance minimum
