I recently purchased Hypocam because I love black & white photography, but I've noticed a frustrating issue with the export quality. The final saved image looks different from what I see in the app while editing. It seems like some kind of smoothing or noise reduction is applied when exporting, which removes details and changes the overall look. This completely alters the aesthetic I intended. I tried checking the settings, but I couldn't find any option to disable this processing. Edited

Ok, so this app takes great pictures.. But everything else is terrible. They try to have you do everything from the app, and it's bad. No help or instruction sections. It WILL NOT save to your phone automatically. You have to go to share>other and upload to Google photos, And despite being able to select multiple photos, it will only allow you to do It one at a time. Very awkward to use. The UI is garbage, it's pretty, but laggy as heck and awful to use

Really liked the photo filters. But not so intuitive interface, and no instructions or hints on how to use the app overall. It also wouldn't save the photos after hitting the check mark. So either save is disabled or I just couldn't figure out how to save. Which is why instructions or hints are needed. Deleted app, not looking for a puzzle to solve.

I'm using a Pixel 7 Pro. I am really loving this app. there are many settings, filters and textures to create endless styles of B&W photos. I was confused over pricing and different paid packs. I bought the "all filters" pack but then I saw some individual ones they still wanted money for. I bought them all but Wonder if I was essentially double charged. So double check exactly which filters and textures you bought. I should have looked closer. I just don't know if I paid twice for some or not.

Fairly good, but has limitations. Hypocam only utilizes the main and selfie cameras (I never use the selfie camera). Being able to use all of my phone's cameras would be a big benefit. It would be great if there was a provision to shoot faux B&W Infrared. It was in hopes that this ability was part of the app that I downloaded it. I use this technique frequently, so it would be great to have an app that would allow pre-viewing the scene as B&W Infrared before capture and processing.
