About Spectre

Spectre is an innovative AI-powered shutter for iPhone designed to simplify the process of taking stunning long exposures. Unlike traditional methods, Spectre eliminates the need for technical guesswork by utilizing advanced technologies such as machine learning-based scene detection and computer vision-aided image stabilization. This makes it easier for users to capture mesmerizing shots without worrying about camera steadiness or light estimation. Developed by the team behind Halide, Spectre ensures that both novice and experienced photographers can effortlessly create high-quality long exposure images. One of the standout features of Spectre is its ability to erase crowds from photos. Perfect for capturing the beauty of crowded tourist spots, this feature lets you set a medium or long duration to effectively remove people from your shot, showcasing the location as you experienced it. Additionally, Spectre excels in nighttime photography by automatically switching modes to highlight beautiful light trails, making it ideal for capturing cityscapes after dark or engaging in creative light painting. Spectre's user-friendly design goes beyond just taking photos. The live exposure process feature saves the entire exposure as a Live Photo, allowing you to replay the exposure just as it happened. You can watch elements like cars and water transform into smooth, dynamic visuals and share these as still images or videos. Built with a dark UI for nighttime use, custom typefaces, and intuitive controls, Spectre provides a seamless and enjoyable photography experience that is easy to navigate with one hand. Available now on the App Store.
