Can you recommend an app to correct the distortion of the wide angle lens on the iPhone? On Mac and iPad I use Affinity for this kind of stuff.
Lightroom is my photo editor/manager so I use its built in lens correction capabilities. The iOS app runs on both iPhone and iPad.

I posted some iPhone X vs. iPhone XS example pictures in this post. The iPhone XS camera is much better when taking a picture of a streetcar in New Orleans — and I’m sure many other times as well.

Thanks, I saw that one and wondered if it was good. I don’t want to get on the Adobe subscription.

Shot with an iPhone 7, no alterations. Going to get a iPhone XS soon.

I just stumbled upon this thread. As an avid iPhone photographer I’m very glad to see it!
I’m still on the Xs Max and will be upgrading to whatever Apple comes out with later this year. I’m shooting most of my stuff in RAW+JPG with Halide because I really like the quality I get in a RAW image in Halide. Here’s a couple of samples.
I also do a couple of podcasts related to iPhone photography. I’m a cohost on Tiny Shutter and my own show is The Artful iPhotography Interviews.

I enjoy the Tiny Shutter podcast.
Sorry for missing this earlier. Thanks Dudley! I’m glad you like the show. 
Taking photos facing the sun could be challenging with any Camera, and with iPhone’s algorithms for SmartHDR the results can be less than satisfying. Shooting RAW+JPG has been my method of choice for image capture starting in January because I wanted to try practicing iPhone photography in a more traditional way, like I did when I had a DSLR.
I’m finding that RAW files, especially ones shot with Halide and it’s SmartRAW feature, give me much better image quality, even from the Tele camera which tends to have more image noise because of the smaller aperture. Getting every bit of information out of a RAW file without Apple’s magic sauce interfering definitely has its advantages.
This photo was shot on my Xs Max with Halide and processed with RAW Power. The JPG counterpart was just not as good.

How did you find a mountain lake that’s not engulfed in flames at the moment?
