Reviews: What People Think About Apollo: Immersive illumination

Rating: 4/5
For the reviewers who aren't able to edit their existing portrait photos, I had the same issue. I found that any portrait photos I capture after I've downloaded the app work. It doesn't seem to recognize older portrait photos but works really well for new ones. I actually like how the Help Tips are defaulted to on until I get used to the functions. After a few times through it was easy to turn Help off. For the developer, it might be helpful if you can explain how to turn Help off right in the app. Like the info you have when the question mark it tapped.

Thought this app would be kinda cool concept is good but it won’t access any photos so it’s absolutely useless complete waste of money
I was asked to edit my review of this app so here it is this is a great concept but it can’t access any of my portrait mode photos that it has already filtered it wasn’t that it wouldn’t access my regular photos that I left a bad review I knew it would do that before hand I checked the app out first and read as much about it as I could so I already knew it would filter and only use portrait mode photos but every time I chose one to edit it says it can’t access I checked the setting to make sure it wasn’t on my end as well and I did give permission to the app to access my photos and it still can’t access my portrait mode photos that it displays when you open the app I can only access the sample photos provided with the app so once again until this problem is resolved this app is useless to me and was a waste of money and the issues are not do to user error

Can’t access all of my photos, just 40 or so, instead of the 7,000+. Of the 40 available, not one is able to be opened by the app. The refund is on its way.
Update 3:
Received another tone deaf email from the developers begging me to change my review.
So I downloaded the app once more and opened it up, granting permission to access my photos. Still can’t open any of my Portrait Mode pics.
Thanks but no thanks, devs. I’ll take my money back now, thanks.
Update 2:
I’ve received another response from the developer. It seems to be rather tone deaf. They just keep reiterating that the app only works with photos taken in Portrait Mode. Here’s my reply to the developers...
I know what Portrait Photos are. I know how to differentiate between them and other photos. I know where they’re stored in the Photos App. I know how your app works.
Now read, very carefully -
Your app DOES NOT open any Portrait Mode photo on my iPhone 7 Plus, nor will it open a photo taken in Portrait Mode on my wife’s iPhone 7 Plus.
Until the app is updated, you shouldn’t ask me to update this review.
Update:
Received a canned response from the developer, but it completely misses the mark. Yes, I understand the app is only going to use photos taken in Portrait Mode.
But there’s just the one glaring problem, dear developers:
Your app won’t open any Portrait Mode photo!
Refund please. Pronto.
About Apollo: Immersive illumination
*** Apollo operates on Portrait Mode photos (requires iPhone 7 Plus, 8 Plus, X or NEWER). ***
Apollo is the FIRST application that enables you to add light sources to your **Portrait Mode** photos, after the photo was taken! Apollo reconstructs a 3D map of your photo which you can augment with new light sources in real time. Take your portrait mode photographs from awesome to unforgettable by selecting the color, intensity, distance of a light and illuminate your photos and selfies to your heart's content.
***
WARNING: Taking portrait mode photos requires iPhone 7 Plus, 8 Plus, X or NEWER.
***
Apollo is the first app to use the depth data of your portrait mode photos to calculate photorealistic light and shadow. Using a proprietary processing algorithm running on your iPhone's graphics card, Apollo is able to render light sources on a portrait scene or selfie in real time.
Apollo allows professional photographers and amateurs alike to try things that are not possible in the physical world. You can shape scene lighting by adding or even removing light. Since lights are computationally rendered in the scene, it is possible to put a light source within the frame: say hello to invisible lamps!
The UI is optimised for use with one thumb, allowing you to always view the entire photo. One price, no in-app purchases and no subscriptions.
We hope that Apollo is part of the computational photography revolution. We are doing our best but your support is crucial. Send us your feedback, ideas or bug reports on our support email.
