User Reviews

Overall, The Simple Camera is praised for its clean, uncluttered interface, ease of use, and good photo quality, with a silent shutter option. Users also value smaller file sizes that save iCloud space and the ability to replace the stock iPhone camera, plus a fairly priced pro version that adds features. However, reviews repeatedly cite heavy monetization through ads (including banners and ads after shots) and a lack of portrait mode and other core features. Stability and OS compatibility issues, as well as problems with premium unlocks across different stores, are also common complaints.

Pros

Simple, uncluttered interface that is easy to use.
Good image quality and camera options readily available on the main screen.
Smaller file sizes that help save iCloud storage.
Silent shutter and other features make it a practical replacement for the stock camera.
Pro version is fairly priced and adds more features, making it worth upgrading.

Cons

Ad-ridden experience with ads appearing even for premium users, including banners and ads after shots.
Missing portrait mode and other essential camera features, with many users asking for these options.
Stability and compatibility problems, including crashes, black screen on launch, and OS-specific issues.
In-app purchase and cross-store unlocking problems that sometimes revert premium features to free mode.

Recent reviews

A very nice app but despite purchasing the premium version whenever I share a photo from the app, it sporadically ads marketing information and it cannot be switched off in the preferences.
