Over two years ago we released Camera+ for iPhone. At that time we’d been working for a year in an effort to create the best camera app for iPhone. We wanted to make an app we’d love to use ourselves.
After an amazing reception and unbelievable support from all of you, Camera+ reached the incredible milestone of being #1 paid non-game app of the year in 2011, and as of today we’ve sold over 9 million copies. But there’s always been an empty iPad-shaped hole in our hearts.
As some of you are aware, many tap tap tap people also work on projects for our other company, MacHeist. And after over three years have elapsed since the last full season of MacHeist, we’ve just launched MacHeist 4.
The last time we did this, for MacHeist 3, the App Store was in its infancy, only being open for less than a year. At that time we were much smaller, so tap tap tap essentially went on hiatus for the time that it took to plan and execute MacHeist 3.
But this
Last summer, we introduced our new spin on MacHeist’s crazy missions, puzzles solving and software freebies to the iPhone… we called it The Heist.
One year later, we’re proud to announce that over a million of you have taken up the challenge of cracking our safe! That’s a lot of heisting, and a lot of Sophia phone calls!
To celebrate this huge milestone, we’re going to drop the price of entry and see just how many more people we can convince to join our life of pretend crime! So as of today, The Heist is now Read more...
It was two years ago today that we launched Camera+ 1.0. Coincidentally, we’ve sold our 8 millionth copy of Camera+ as of today.
The past two years have been been a pretty wild ride with plenty of ups and downs, both internally and externally. Through thick and thin, we’ve managed to grow the development team to 17 people now and we have several “sub-teams” focusing on particular areas of the app.
Some of these areas are pretty substantial and you’ll all be seeing the results of one sub-team’s work in the next few weeks. I’m not
Last year, we released The Heist for iPhone. The reaction was awesome.
We’ve since been thinking a lot about what worked. Running through the list:
• Heist theme, story and setting
• 4th wall-busting light ARG elements
• Fiendish puzzles to solve
• Crack the MacHeist vault
• Awesome production value
• Free software, with Eets as a freebie to loot at the end
It’s a fine list, and it’s
A few weeks ago, we launched Camera+ 3.0 with a new app-integrating API with some amazing apps like WordPress, Foodspotting, and Tweetbot on board. We’re excited to announce a whole new bunch of amazing apps that have integrated Camera+ features into their own apps. It’s a situation where everyone wins, especially the users, which is the most important part!

One of our users, Ed Elliott created a detailed guide for Camera+ that is worth checking out. If you are looking for a little guidance on how the app works, this comprehensive guide goes into detail about the various shooting modes, editing tools, and sharing options available in Camera+.
For Camera+ version 3, one of the changes we made was to make the shooting mode setting (Normal, Stabilizer, Timer, Burst) “sticky” across launches of the app. We’ve gotten many requests from you for this and we hope you like this small change.
But in the process of doing so, somehow having the shooting mode set to Burst would cause slowdowns when launching Camera+. We’ve identified this thanks to some diligent users who helped us track it down and it’ll be fixed in the next update of the app.
In the meantime, to get around the slow loading issue, simply don’t leave the shooting mode set to Burst when you exit
