I am amazed by the level of detail in your videos. This is just on another level compared to other reviews that just skim over the surface. As a person just starting photography and videography as a hobby on my iPhone you are just godsend.
Great honest and thorough review without being 40 minutes long!! Would love a follow up now, a few years later to see your thoughts on any new features that have been added and if they’ve fixed any of the problems you had with it.
I just ordered two Moment lenses and a case for my iPhone 11Pro Max. They arrive in several days. While waiting, I downloaded the Moment software and immediately felt overwhelmed. So I went to CZcams and found tutorials and your review. Your review was reassuring that it is good software and once learned, it should be a great tool to capture good photos. So, thank you. You got my ”like” and subscription.
Sorry, CZcams doesn't notify me of all comments so I've just seen yours. I'll be comparing Halide, Moment and the other apps I've reviewed in an upcoming video.
Excellent review - very sound information, unbiased, presented in a way that's easy to understand and to follow. App developers and potential buyers should pay close attention.
Phones are great cameras nowadays, still, the default iphone app doesnt encourage me to take pictures, and I get from this review that this app with all it has will make you want to shoot more, i wanna try that! Only problem for me so far is that when using this app vs the mimo app for the OM4 i will lose live tracking, so i dont know how much different or if its going to be noticeable to change from one app to another just for a couple of tracking takes, other than that imma give it a try, thanks man!
Thanks, David! Now to view your Moment Camera App Tutorial you released a year after this review was made. I wonder how many of the issues you point out have been fixed. Should be interesting.
Liked your review a lot. Very definite especially on the section concerning lenses. Given the technology and increasing capabilities of mobile phones, it still remains that, if you're going a little further in taking photos and videos, use of lenses certainly open possibilities in the hardware department. The built-in lens settings in Moment app marries the app's capabilities with lens installed (to spare users' learning curve about just the right settings). Your review is very much appreciated. Kudos to your channel!
I literally have been watching a bunch of your videos the whole day, you deserve so much more subscribers, thanks dude, your content it's awesome and very helpful
David, I recently went to a concert and tried to record it with both native app and moment app. I found these issues. 1. With native app, even if I choose 3x zoom, it doesn’t switch to telephoto lens until I zoom like 3.5-4x or sometimes more. I used the moment app to hard select the lens. 2. I see that even after selecting hevc format, it is still shooting H.264. I do not see HDR and Dolby atmos as well. The native video app is much brighter and the difference can be seen. 3. I turned on stabilization on moment app but it doesn’t look like it is being stabilized. There was a lot of movement and the footage looks really bad. But when I shoot with native app, the stabilization is extremely good and the video looks smooth. I am not sure if I’m facing this or this is an issue with the app.
Thanks for an amazing in-depth review. I have been doing some research to get Moment or ProCamera or Slow Shutter Cam. This review has helped me with my decision. Thank you.
First review of yours I’ve seen. Absolutely the best. For ‘Not being a video guy.’ the gate repair was better than what some so called pros can do. You provided all the information I needed, in a manner that spoke to me as a professional.
Sweet comment dude, thanks! I've actually learned a lot since I made this video so the video section does make me cringe a little. Got an update video coming soon which compares the main 4 advanced camera apps so you may find that interesting!
The app’s okay. It’s very glitchy though. I can set a certain fps but it’ll change it almost every second during recording. It also ended a video I was recording a whole 10 minutes early but showed the time still going. These bugs pretty much ruined my content
Hi David. Subscribed your channel and thank you for the detailed review. I fully agree with you. Clip on your dad was fantastically sharp and well composed. Keep up the good work
Nicely balanced review! All I was looking for was something to make my iPhone XR shoot in RAW mode. Moment does that and so much more! I'm having it! Thank you...you done good! Bob (U.K.).
I have learnt a lot from your channel for which I thank you. Occasionally the sound on your videos is a bit quiet and my - very basic - speaker system has difficulty in increasing. Just a thought
Thank you very much! I have an update video for the Moment App coming soon

Pisicul, thanks for taking the time to deliver a very thoughtful in depth view of the Moment App, much appreciated! I too have the Filmic Pro app. I agree with your comparison points. I haven't probably tested it with the necessary rigor, but my initial thoughts are shared with your insights. I've been keenly interested in the Moment lenses, yet my budget has other priorities, so I haven't taken the plunge yet. But, I was excited about the app, just curious to see what it's about. The Moment app seems to have a lot of the very practical iPhone video shoot challenges covered to raise the bar on what I'm trying to do. Thanks again for sharing your take on this app! I have other camera gear yet I have a passion for photography and videography with my (currently) iPhone 8 Plus.
Thank you for the detailed comment René! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Keep an eye out for my update video on the Moment app. I think you'll enjoy it!
My pleasure, really. Was surprised these controls were not part of the native iOS camera app but as far as I’m concerned, spending $6 is a no-brainer for the improved functionality. You any videos on using external mics with iphone? @@David_Addison
Thanks for taking the time to share your review. You're clearly very knowledgeable. After 4 years on Huwawei i've returned to Iphone this time 11pro. I want to be able to take photos of my artwork but I find the photos have a horrid harshness and are not true to colour which was never an issue with the Huwawei camera. Is there an app you can please recommend which i can buy (once off with no additional charges) where I can soften the colours and also shoot in RAW. Many thanks
Hi Miranda, thank you for watching! Sounds like you’re having a white balance issue. The Moment app in this video has access to white balance and RAW. Pro Cam 7 is more expensive but you can edit the white balance in the app afterwards as well.
@@David_Addison Many thanks. Kind of you to respond. What i'm finding is the contrasts of colour with the iphone are too heightened. arrr driving me mad. If i buy one of these apps will i be able to get around this problem do you think?
Yes the great think about them is when you shoot in RAW the iPhone won’t over sharpen or over saturate the image. There’s a knack to it but it will be worth it for you once you get the hang of it!
That video of your dad is basically amazing 🤩 I’m confused between ProCamera. and Pro cam 8, which one is better for both photo & video shooting and editing?
Thanks! I have an updated Moment review here czcams.com/video/yNE_ogIVj8w/video.html Sorry, I'm not an expert with ND filters for iPhone 12 Pro. I've only used 1 myself.
when you use your phone for shooting picture or movies you have it in landscape or portrait mode? Yes like I tought you would so it's dam confusing that you need to look sideways or turn your phone into portrait to work in menus.
Funny you should ask, I have a video on just that called ‘the best and worst long exposure apps’ you should enjoy. All 3 of the apps you mentioned are in there.
Hi Pisicul, watching the video of the developers of the app, they says that the functionality of lenses is just to add information to the data of the image not to correct de image in order of distortion. And another thing that I notice is that long exposures are also a lot of images not lot of time the diafragma open. A petty. Thanks for the great review!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have an issue where the app takes 3 pictures, with different exposures, over, under and slightly exposed. And I don't get the correct result as indicated before I press shutter, any one know what I can do??
Hi sir i just wanna ask you about the application photography on iphone 11 pro for shoot the picture. Can you suggest me about the best cam apps and video apps for taking photo and video more good but not to hard using the apps 😁 (user friendly) . Thanks sir
Another app for iPhone...crying inside. Any good free video apps for Dji OM4 Gimbal and Android phone xiaomi Mi 10 ultra? And an app like Doubletake app...
I’ve also experienced crashes. But it just needs all the Ram in your phone to run all those functions in one app. Any iPhone with more Ram should be good to go with the app. Less crashes were reported with the iPhone 11 because of that extra 1GB of Ram. 😅, I guess apple needs to up their hardware specs a bit more.
Dear all , basically how to shoot portrait photo using Moment app ? I can do it using the iPhone native camera app , but not with Moment , anyone guidance is highly appreciated
Updated review here! czcams.com/video/yNE_ogIVj8w/video.html
I'm a simple man. I see good production value and thoughtful dialogue I subscribe.
iComplainer Thank you! Always trying to make my videos as good and helpful as I can!
Whats amazing is such an in-depth review has so little views!
Haha, thanks dude. My views are slowly creeping up!
It has a couple more view now 😆

Thanks Kevin! I'm working on a Moment app tutorial at the... um, moment 😅
I still can’t believe the Moment camera app does so many things so well!
moment vs halide. any suggestions?
is there any trial period?
Sorry, CZcams doesn't notify me of all comments so I've just seen yours. I'll be comparing Halide, Moment and the other apps I've reviewed in an upcoming video.
There's no subscription, only a 1 off payment for the app itself and recently the time lapse and slow shutter modes became in app purchases.
Excellent review - very sound information, unbiased, presented in a way that's easy to understand and to follow. App developers and potential buyers should pay close attention.
Thanks Andre! As Moment have now made some modes in app purchases this video does need a little update which I'll be doing soon.
How refreshingly honest as well as being very informative. Thank you.

Very concise review, would love to some Moment Photo App tutorials, and maybe some Moment Filter reviews would be amazing as well
Thanks for watching and for the ideas!💡
This is by far one of the best reviews regarding camera / video apps. 👏👏👏👏
Thanks! Have you seen the updated version for 2021?
I like the way you do things David - very interesting reviews! Thanks.
Thank you for this thoughtful and comprehensive review. Great!
You’re welcome Andreas!

Glad I could help!
Thanks for going into so much detail Pisiculmeu!
I can’t do it any other way lol!
Bro what a great video 🫢🫢 my mind was made up early in the video but i stayed to the end because it was so interesting.
Just bought a few hours ago before i fell asleep! Great review looking forward to it. New Sub 🤙🏽

Haha thanks! Must include that again in a future video.
Thanks again!!! Hugs from Portugal 🇵🇹
Super helpful, easy to follow, thank you!!
The app’s okay. It’s very glitchy though. I can set a certain fps but it’ll change it almost every second during recording. It also ended a video I was recording a whole 10 minutes early but showed the time still going. These bugs pretty much ruined my content
Really well reviewed! But the crashes are getting to me
great job really good video!
No Question you covered all !!
Thanks!
Informative !!
Your knowledge on photography is phenomenal !!
I just make it up as I go along 😉

Solid review right here and the time stamps are convenient-i admit I was interested in video capabilities the most
Thanks for the feedback 😊
My pleasure, really. Was surprised these controls were not part of the native iOS camera app but as far as I’m concerned, spending $6 is a no-brainer for the improved functionality. You any videos on using external mics with iphone? @@David_Addison
Audio is a huge weakness of mine so I could only talk about my own setup
@@David_Addison I gotta ask...what do you make of all the recent reviews commenting on crashing issues and bugs? Something with iOS 14 or.. thoughts?
Crashing has been a problem with Moment for a while. It doesn’t need more features, just needs to be more stable and it’d be the perfect app.
Such a calming voice you have. Good review :)
Thank you so much 🙂
I love your review... And i hope that you get ur moment... So i give you my support... Subscribed and liked
Thank you so much 🙂
Excellent info. Thanks so much.
My pleasure!
Great review! wasn't sure whether to go for Pro Cam 7/8 or this, what would you reccomend for an amateur?
Thanks! Out of the two, I'd go for the Moment app, personally.
Great review
Thank you!
thanks for ur review
Thanks for watching!
Thx buddy....
Great video! Is it worth buying moment timelapse and slow shutter or buy slow shutter cam for £1.99?
Very good review
Thank you!
Thanks for your work. Not much to say for now apart that I bought the app following your review. I may come back once I've used it. Thanks again.
Thanks Alex! I'll be making a Moment app tutorial early next year and I should really update this review now as a lot has changed.
@@David_Addison I suspect the ProRAW is the big one.
@@alexdubois6585 It's not. I actually mention the Moment app in my ProRAW video later today. You might find it interesting.
Very technical view , I will definitely give it a try
Thank you and keep it up
Most welcome 😊
I don't have these crashes on my iPhone 11 Pro (256GB / latest iOS 13) but I am also only using it since a few days.
Yeah, I think my iPhone XR runs out of RAM and crashes.
Very surprised Filmic Pro didn't make this grid 2:48 comparison.
At the time of filming I hadn’t used it.
Thanks man

Has Moment seen this? This is fire.
That video of your dad is basically amazing 🤩
I’m confused between ProCamera. and Pro cam 8, which one is better for both photo & video shooting and editing?
The ProCamera app I meant is by Cocologics
Thanks! It's a tough one. For photo and video they'll both do very well but if I had to pick one it'd be Pro Cam 8.
@@David_Addison thanks bro, much love
Best review! I will get the Moment App instead of FilmicPro. Thank you
Thanks for watching. Glad it was helpful!
Pisicul Meu hi mate great video!! Make a Moment or Filmic Pro App comparison please 🙏
Thank you! Good idea but they wouldn't compare very well. I could make a video comparison for fun.
Pisicul Meu please do, do you recommend to buy the two of them separately,
Like everything about this review, very useful. If you can will you help me the best ND filter for iPhone 12 Pro as I’m new to mobile videos thanks.
Thanks! I have an updated Moment review here czcams.com/video/yNE_ogIVj8w/video.html Sorry, I'm not an expert with ND filters for iPhone 12 Pro. I've only used 1 myself.
Simply eloquent and spot on love the style and clarity of what you do ,, coming from a Brummie thats proper compliment :-) brilliant simply brilliant!
Thanks Phillip! I'm currently working on an updated review that'll be coming soon.

@@David_Addison One question. Moment vs spectre vs slow shutter cam. Which one will you prefer for long exposure shots or light trails ?
Funny you should ask, I have a video on just that called ‘the best and worst long exposure apps’ you should enjoy. All 3 of the apps you mentioned are in there.
@@David_Addison yeah watched it. Thanks
What lenses are you using that you mentioned are cheaper than moment lenses?
Thank you
The issue with the notch was resolved. No problems with the UI being hidden on my iPhone X 😉
Thanks for the heads up Phil! ... My review is now completely out of date 😅
Good information thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Pisicul, watching the video of the developers of the app, they says that the functionality of lenses is just to add information to the data of the image not to correct de image in order of distortion. And another thing that I notice is that long exposures are also a lot of images not lot of time the diafragma open. A petty. Thanks for the great review!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Yes, phones can't expose for longer than 1 second at the moment so long exposure or 'slow shutter' effects are many images stitched together.
Thanks for the tutorial...very helpful for a newbie...I'm using AirPods on my video and I'm getting very bad echoing...is there any fix to this?
Great content! You gained a sub 💪
Welcome aboard!
What’s the folder handwaving I don’t know why people do that it’s so distracting
Great video man 👍
Thank you very much. Really glad you like it 😊
I have an issue where the app takes 3 pictures, with different exposures, over, under and slightly exposed. And I don't get the correct result as indicated before I press shutter, any one know what I can do??
Only this app available for ios ? What about Android?
Great video, thanks!
You're welcome!
Can you remote control the moment app with an iPad ?
Hi sir i just wanna ask you about the application photography on iphone 11 pro for shoot the picture. Can you suggest me about the best cam apps and video apps for taking photo and video more good but not to hard using the apps 😁 (user friendly) . Thanks sir
Is the moment pro camera app a one time purchase or subcription?
Is there any option to change the aspect ratio on the app? I can't seem to find it. Thank you 👍🏽
Hi, whis is your phone holder clip? thanks
Another app for iPhone...crying inside. Any good free video apps for Dji OM4 Gimbal and Android phone xiaomi Mi 10 ultra? And an app like Doubletake app...
How can chang aspect ratio of the image
I’ve also experienced crashes. But it just needs all the Ram in your phone to run all those functions in one app. Any iPhone with more Ram should be good to go with the app. Less crashes were reported with the iPhone 11 because of that extra 1GB of Ram. 😅, I guess apple needs to up their hardware specs a bit more.
Good job
Can you set raw as the default setting for iPhone 12. Can’t stand missing a raw shot because I forgot to switch it🤬
You didn’t speak on external mic
