It’s common knowledge now that the camera on the Apple iPhone has always been pretty neat.

However, one can still improve the camera of an iPhone by installing some camera apps. We list out five camera apps available on App Store that enhance the performance of an iPhone’s camera

Camera+ (Rs 249)
