Shutter Features
Beautiful & Easy to Use
Shutter allows you to take full remote control of your camera wirelessly or via USB. The app goes beyond what a standard remote shutter release can do, giving you even more control of your camera from a distance.
This camera remote is designed to work with iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, therefore it is always with you.
Shutter allows you to focus on the composition and try different poses without having to fiddle with the camera.
Exposure & Focus Bracketing
Shutter’s multi-exposure automation allows you to control and configure the exposure bracketing features within your camera. Preserve the highlight and shadow detail of high dynamic range scenes and keep your post-processing options open.
The focus bracketing feature helps you expand the depth of field to create incredibly sharp macro and landscape photos with front to back sharpness.
Combine the two for breathtaking results!
Intervalometer
The intervalometer will transform your travel and social media photography. No more running back and forth to set the self-timer up and jump into the frame. Schedule multiple photos, set the interval time and change your poses easily.
Our intervalometer can also be used to capture hundreds of frames for astrophotography or time-lapse in RAW.
You can even use it with timed BULB exposures.
Composition Tools
The built-in composition overlays give you more advanced composition tools than those in your camera.
Compose each photo more accurately and visualize different crops and aspect ratios (e.g. for anamorphic lenses or Instagram).
The grid overlay is ideal for ensuring your compositions are straight, important elements are aligned and you have followed the rule of thirds.
Battery Friendly
Conveniently check progress when running longer sequences.
We all hate dying batteries. That’s why we’ve optimized the Shutter app for minimal power consumption.
When shooting longer sequences, you can lock the screen to preserve power. The app will still run in the background and show you the progress.
For Photo & Video
Easily choose the relevant shooting mode to only show the controls you need.
Everyone benefits from our remote shutter app. As a videographer, you no longer need expensive external monitors. Your phone and iPad can do everything, or even your Apple Watch.
As a wildlife photographer, you can setup the camera closer to the animals and control it remotely from a distance, allowing you to get safely out of the way.

Reviews from the App Store
Great app!
The Shutter app was pivotal to my photography of the total solar eclipse this week with my Sony a6700 camera. The camera is capable of bracketing nine stops per second, but the intervalometer mode in the app allowed me to do so for 20-30 seconds straight at the pivotal moment when totality began and again when it ended to capture Bailey’s Beads and the Diamond Ring Effect. Not only was I able to get all these exposures, but I was able to begin each sequence with a single tap on my phone: I was able to watch and appreciate the entire event without even touching the camera, which was connected to a tracking mount in a hard-to-reach position.

Incredible Customer Service
In this day and age when it’s so difficult to get someone to help when you need it most, it is quite refreshing to work with a company like Shutter who has incredible and caring people that want their customers to have the best experience when engaging with their product. I can tell you first hand that when I experienced an issue, I received a response within minutes and the issue was resolved. For the record, it was my fault. The app worked as it should and incredibly. Thank you for the great product and service!!!

About Us
We’re Kalina & Grzegorz, and we love traveling to secluded places. We also love capturing beautiful moments. Sometimes, when no one is around, it was hard to get a perfect picture of both of us.
That’s why we’ve created Shutter – to make our travel photography easier. It started as a passion project after a visit to the beautiful Swiss Alps. It’s been a faithful companion on countless trips. We even used it to photograph our engagement!
