Mobile photography is all about capturing your lifestyle and sharing with others what you do, what you discover, what you buy, what you experience and where you do it.

App Store Link: Phototreats; Price: FREE plus 2x £0.59/$0.99/€0.79 in-app purchase options

Editors comments: As a partial free app, Phototreats offers full-res support, along with similar looking results to those from apps like CameraBag and Infinicam.  As noted above there are 2x add-on filter packs available at £0.59/$0.99/€0.79 each, but what is nice about this app, is you can see the effects of these add-ons and how they will make your photos look before you part with any cash.

Whilst this app will not offer anything new to your iPhoneography camera bag, it is free, and is worth the download, and if you like the look of the add-ons, then the app will only set you back a couple of of $/£/€.

One feature I'm not a fan of, but something that seems to be on the increase, is the apps ability to upload and share via the cloud using the developers own service, although unlike some apps you do not need to sign up to their service to actually use the app, as you can save to the camera roll.
