Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to the most common questions about Iris
Do I need a tripod?
No! Iris uses AI stabilisation to minimise blur. However, a tripod or steady surface can improve results for very long exposures.
Can I save photos to my Camera Roll?
Yes, all photos are saved in high resolution to your Photos app.
My photo looks too bright/washed out. What should I do?
Try lowering the exposure time or adjusting brightness in editing. Night scenes generally work best with longer exposures.
Does Iris work in daylight?
Yes, but bright daylight may require shorter exposure times to avoid overexposure.
Why do I see trails/dots instead of smooth light streaks?
That’s part of Iris’s creative effect. Try adjusting exposure time for smoother results.
Tips for Best Results
Simple ways to improve long-exposure shots
Hold your device steady or lean it against a solid surface for extra stability.
Use the timer to prevent shake when pressing the shutter.
For light trails, experiment with longer exposures (10–30 seconds).
For ghost mode, ensure the subject moves through the frame during exposure.
