Huge congrats to all our indie friends — and there's some good ones in there like @crouton and Blackbox! — on winning the Apple Design Awards this year! What a lineup.
Hey, psst. You. Yes, you. You thought we were done?
🔥 Kino 1.0.3 is out now, with huge speed enhancements. Faster on all devices, much faster grade selection, and lots of other enhancements. Live for all users now.
@halide is this an intended behavior that the app does not persist my viewfinder settings? For instance when I choose to display the grid, this does not seem to be persisted when the app is fully launched again. Kudos on the great work by the way. This is a great app!
Shout out to Maciek Czarnik for discovering the edge-casiest bug of this update: Kino not handling it well when users delete Apple Mail from their iPhone!
Fixed a crash if you tried to contact support after deleting the Apple mail client 🤔
Updated the Lektar Grade
Added lots polish around padding and spelling
If you have any issues, please let us know at support@lux.camera. If you appreciate our hard weekend work, we'd love it if you could leave us a nice review. It goes a long way!
@halide Hey, just played with Kino today on my hike. Excellent app, but I have to tell you that extreme light differences causing it a very hard time even in HDR mode. Compare with Apple Camera app:
@halide Haven’t had much time to play with Kino yet, but one thing we could not find is a way to record without audio. For some use cases it’s just completely unnecessary, so turning the mic off is preferred.
@halide Hi! What recording file types are available for the regular iPhone 15? What will I be missing? I feel like it won’t do much for me without the Pro 😥
Introducing: Kino. Our take on pro video for iPhone.
Beautiful video made easy. One-tap cinematic color, perfect motion, and tons of pro features — great for film pros, but simple enough for the rest of us.
@dgrady it might have been shown briefly at launch when Kino was seeing high CPU / memory / disk usage from the system which could be a precursor to dropped frames.
