About BlackSight: Night mode camera
BlackSight is a computational photography app designed to take brighter and images with little amount of noise in low light conditions. Using sophisticated long exposure algorithms, it can capture high quality photos in dark environments without requiring any internet connection. Your photos are processed locally on your device , hence protecting your privacy. Tripod is not required but using one will result in sharper images.
Features:
- Compatible with all cameras (front, ultra-wide, wide, telephoto)
- Manual focus
- Timer
- Soft torch for illuminating super dark scenes
- Photo format (HEIC/JPEG)
- Shoot lower resolution image for faster processing
- Grid
- Mirrored selfies
- Front flash
- Smart white balance correction to reduce yellowish tint
- Tripod mode for taking brighter and noise free images for very dark scenes
Supported devices:
- iPhone 6s and above (6S, 6S+, SE, 7, 7+, 8, 8+, X, XS, XR, SE 2, 11, 11 Pro)
- Front camera is not supported for iPhone 6s/6s+
Tips for better photos:
- Choose a moderate/dim scene with uniform lighting (avoid harsh light source like lamps/street lights)
- Use a tripod or rest your hands/phone on a surface for maximum sharpness
- Always tap to focus before taking each photo and wait for focus to stabilises (Focussing can take 1-3 seconds to lock in dark scenes)
- Hold your phone using two hands as it reduces hand motion
- Hold your breath if you are doing handheld shot (Yes, this helps!!)
- For selfies, do not blink your eyes and try to stay still with minimal head motion
- For human portraits, make sure your subjects hold very still for up to 5 seconds
- Avoid scenes having any kind of motion like cars, persons, crowds, pets, windy trees

Jul 19, 2021
Version 2.0 uses a new algorithm which fuses raw sensor data to extract more details in darker areas. You should notice sharper overall photos and improved highlights recovery.
Since it requires raw sensor data, this algorithm will only be used on cameras which supports RAW captures(all cameras support raw except front cameras and ultra wide cameras).

-Added tripod mode
When tripod mode is activated, BlackSight will use the maximum exposure duration allowed by the camera hardware. For iPhone XR and above, the maximum duration is 1 second but this cannot be used handheld because it might produce blurry photos. Since shooting at 1 second shutter speed is very sensitive to handshake, a tripod is required for this mode. All iPhones released before iPhone XR are limited to 1/3 seconds of maximum exposure duration. Hence using tripod mode on such devices will not have any effect. As a workaround, the app has an experimental processing for iPhone X/8/8+/SE 2 which will be used in dark environments when turning on tripod mode. For iPhone 6s/SE 1, enabling this mode will produce in better results for dark scenes. For iPhone 7/7+/6S+ it will not have any effect.
