Slowshot: Slow Shutter Camera

Slowshot turns your phone into a slow shutter camera. Keep the shutter open for half a second or half a minute and watch the photo build up live: car lights become glowing light trails, waterfalls turn silky, crowds melt into soft motion blur and dark scenes get bright. No account needed. Photos are processed on your phone. Contains ads; usage analytics is optional.

Three long exposure looks
• Light trails: moving lights draw lines. Perfect for traffic at night, sparklers, light painting, fireworks and fairground rides
• Motion blur: everything that moves turns smooth. Silky water, busy streets, dreamy blurry photos and artsy party shots
• Low light: stacks many frames into one bright night photo with less noise

A real slow shutter
• Shutter times from ½ second to 30 seconds, plus bulb mode that stays open until you tap again
• Watch the long exposure build up live on screen, frame by frame
• Exposure is locked during the shot, so passing lights do not make the picture flicker
• Exposure compensation, zoom, torch and tap to focus
• Self-timer (3 or 10 s) and the volume buttons as shutter, so you don't shake the phone
• Back and front camera, with mirrored selfies if you like

Change the look after the shot
Slowshot keeps the whole exposure until you save it. Switch between light trails, motion blur and low light, turn the trail strength up or down, freeze the last moment as a sharp ghost over the blur, or boost a dark night photo, all after you have taken it.

Turn any video into a long exposure
Already filmed the fireworks, a waterfall or traffic at night? Pick the video, choose the part you want, and Slowshot stacks every frame into one long exposure photo.

Tip: the steadier the phone, the sharper the photo. Lean it against a wall or a railing, use a small tripod or the self-timer, and let only the lights and the water move.
