iLightningCam 2 - The Second Generation is an impressive app that allows users to capture stunning photographs of real lightning strikes using their iPhone or iPad. This highly-anticipated sequel to the original iLightningCam, which boasted ISO control and gained a significant user base of over 160,000 since 2012, has been three years in the making.

Some notable features of iLightningCam 2 include:

  • Full AUTO Mode: This innovative mode eliminates the need for user input, automatically transitioning between day and night modes and continuously calculating the optimal ISO settings based on previous strikes.
  • Original Photo Resolution: With no tricks or interpolation involved, this app ensures that your lightning photographs maintain their true quality.
  • Improved Detection: iLightningCam 2 boasts enhanced lightning strike detection capabilities.
  • Double-shot and Blend: Users can capture two images in quick succession, with one of them being a blend of the first two shots.
  • New Modern Design: The app has received a fresh modern design, adding to its overall appeal.
  • Manual ISO Adjustments: For more advanced users, iLightningCam 2 allows for fully adjustable ISO ranges.

iLightningCam 2 utilizes real-time recognition technology to identify and capture lightning strikes as they occur. Once detected, your iPhone or iPad can swiftly capture a picture of the lightning at its full resolution. Rest assured that your Apple device possesses the necessary speed to execute this task seamlessly. However, it's important to note that this app requires a clear view of an actual thunderstorm to function optimally.

The app can be used freely by holding your iPhone towards the desired scene or part of the sky where you anticipate the next lightning strike. Simply activate iLightningCam 2 and allow the app to automatically activate the camera's trigger if a lightning strike is detected within your field of view.

Warning: It is crucial to be aware that lightning storms present life-threatening risks to both yourself and your device. Exercise extreme caution when using this app and refrain from taking unnecessary risks or exposing yourself to thunderstorms. Only utilize this app in safe, lightning- and storm-protected locations. Please note that you assume sole responsibility for your actions and any potential adverse consequences. It is imperative to read the full safety warning provided in the instructions page before utilizing this app.

Who should avoid using this app: iLightningCam 2 is not suitable for children or individuals with mental disabilities who may lack the capacity to protect themselves against lightning strikes and associated storms.
