Obscura 1.2 update brings advanced photography app to iPad

Today, the popular alternative camera client Obscura is rolling out an update with a handful of new features including iPad support.

Announced via the developer’s Twitter account, the app’s headlining feature is support for the iPad. The update also brings a handful of bug fixes including a layout fix for iPhone 5s/SE, flash not triggering, and faster launch times.

Obscura is typically available for $4.99 on the App Store but is currently available as a free download via a promotion inside the Apple Store app.

The full changelog can be found below:

Just a fix for a bug with the spirit level that would cause a crash.
