Camera replacement apps are on the rise! Stephanie Chu reviews four apps that give you zoom, image editing, geo tagging, social network sharing, image stabilization, timer, burst and more!
The best thing that's happened to iPhone's camera lately is touch focus and video. Our native app can get the job done when taking photos, but there's definitely more to be desired based on the many apps that exist for image enhancement.
Some of you simply want a camera that has other basic functions like zoom, taking multiple photos in bursts, level aids, and image stabilization. We review 4 apps this week that you can choose from: Snapture, Camera Genius, Camera Plus Pro, and GorillaCam.
