Light Painting: Long Exposure

Light Painting turns your phone into a live long exposure camera. Move a torch, a sparkler or a glow stick in front of it and watch the trail build on screen as you draw. Stop when you like it and save the picture. How it works The camera keeps the brightest light it sees in every frame, so moving lights leave smooth trails while a dark background stays dark. On phones that allow it, exposure is fixed for the whole capture so each frame draws a streak, not a dot. Free - Live light painting up to 20 seconds, saved in Full HD - Natural and Warm looks, change them after you capture - Self timer, and start or stop with a volume button or a Bluetooth camera remote - Front or back camera, with Flip left to right so words read the right way round - Save to your gallery or share straight away - Your last 3 pictures kept in the app Light Painting Pro, one payment, no subscription - Pictures up to 4K with no mark in the corner - Time-lapse video of the trail building up - Car trails and star trails, from 15 seconds to 30 minutes - Keep the scene behind your trails, with noise control - Rainbow trails that change colour as you draw - Sparkler gold, Neon city, Comet and Mono noir looks - Pause, move into place, then carry on painting - Symmetry: left and right, top and bottom, or four way - A faint live view under the trail while you paint - Every picture kept in the app Tips Find somewhere dark, keep the phone still (a tripod, a clamp or a pile of books), and use bright lights. Light sparklers outdoors, wear gloves and keep a bucket of water nearby. Everything happens on your phone. There are no accounts and nothing is uploaded.
