So, you’re interested in sharing your presets with friends or you are curious about what they do? If you long-press a preset thumbnail, you can tap share to share it. This will display all the parameters used for that preset, along with a preview and a QR code. You can save this to Photos or show it to a friend. All they need to do is scan the QR code by opening the “Display settings” and tapping the QR code symbol. Then, all the parameters will be set for them, and they can save it in a preset. Let me know what you think about this! I’ve also improved the app’s overall performance and stability. Now you can show a touch point (enable it in the settings) for screen cast and just if you like it I brought more details in the icons.

Great news! As you’ve all been asking, here’s the update: Now, you can easily switch between presets and add the aspect ratio to them! I added more possible places for presets. Just long-press on a preset thumbnail to open the menu (they’re located on top of the device, by the way). You’ll see all the parameters you’ve modified compared to the default settings, and you can decide whether to use, ignore, or remove some of them in this preset. You can also change the aspect ratio or the name. The ratio will be displayed in the thumbnail. Since I found playing with the presets so enjoyable, I’ve added a second row to hold 5 more presets on the screen. Add them at the Display setting.

I fixed a bug that could cause an app to be purchased on one device but unavailable on another. Thank you for the feedback.

Now you can make round and pill shaped Images: - go to border settings and choose border 50% - got to format settings to choose 1x1 for round or a different ratio for a pill shaped image Added a Knob to the photo library after taking a photo for a short time Fixed a problem with the customization of the app. - Now you can add, change and delete knobs again to make BlaX Macro your own. - go to Display settings (3rd right icon top of app) - touch the icon with the 9 squares next to the Display settings text - Find a + at the bottom of the app to add a knob or long touch on a button to remove it

Sorry for some problems with jumping from 4.x to 5.x: - Reset UI and lenses at first time usign version 5 to get a consistent UI - Disabled focused mode on first time, since not all know how to deactivate it. - Fix problem with restoring pro mode on some devices.

Major Update: Many of you have ask for a simpler user interface and a larger viewfinder. Now check it out and tell me, what you think, please. In the display settings you can now - change buttons, - have a menu mode for a different ui experience - you can change the color mode for very dark or light enivronments - add view finder masks like golden ratio All Presets and can be put as a short cut to the to of the app and you can change the presets to your needs.

Now you can add Film grain (3 Levels) to your result. Your opinion there would be very helpful. Allow orientation changes on orientation locked devices (optional in settings). Fixed that elements gone missing in dark mode. Thank you for your insights, wishes and telling me, where you struggle. Lars

You asked for more moods, here they are: - Clear view: Strong colors and view. Like a CPL - A Green Day: Feeling green? Live it! - A Sin: The Contrast is over the top. Create a different world. - Fixed that the choosen mood was missing at the start of the app. - The Greycard Frame stays the same at choosing the greycard mode. - Touch again Greycard tho choose the next size. - Showing why Picture is dramatically different (Mood, Macro, Filter) - Improved saving photos

A thumbnail will now be shown after taking an image.

Now you can choose between luminance histogram and color histogram.

Now you can choose the size of the area where white balance is performed using a gray card. This allows you to place the gray card directly in the scene and not in front of the device. So it's possible to get the true white balance and not the one somewhere else. Improved the accuracy of the overall white balance.

Now you can check the current white balance and fix it to this value by using a grey card. Just touch the white balance knob and there the grey card. Improved custom colors.

There is now haptic feedback when taking photos and achieving perfect leveling with the spirit level. This can be disable in the settings.

It's a colorful day! Choose you favorite colors in the settings for: - Exposure Modes, Focus Modes and White Balance Modes - Inactive Icons - Active Icons - Special Icons Make BlaX Macro your own. Send me a screenshot of your colorful BlaX Macro App to support@blaXmacro.com Keep sending me feature requests, please. This helps to improve the quality of the app. And maybe give a nice review with 5 stars. This helps a lot to keep developing. Lars Menzel BlaX Macro
