I'm here to support small devs. I got a couple shots out of it. You should include some guidelines for how to improve images.

Hello, I've rated 5 stars to help out with your app in google Play, but I haven't used it in a thunder/lightning situation. I have a few questions: - Is it possible to change the camera viewing angle to a wide angle? - is it possible to adjust and lock the camera exposure compensation (EV ± 1, 2,5...)? - what the capture response delay time? How fast does it take the picture when a detection is detected? - add optional audio signal when there is a capture (like on Blitzortung thunder map)?

Great app, have been able to take some shots that would have not been possible otherwise. Thankyou. Only question is the image quality that appears quite noisy. Are there any ways to improve this?

I pointed it at the sky during a storm with frequent clear lightning with both default and the maximum sensitivity, and then the quadrants' thing. Not a single capture, but I did get a bunch of plain sky photos. Very disappointing, got wet for nothing. Edit: almost forgot to mention the shady thousand or so cookies you're expected to swallow. So it wants to spy on you AND doesn't do the job.

A great concept but unfortunately does not actually work. Even when sensitivity is set to Ultra and Quadrant, it cannot detect flashes in any scenario other than at night very close to the camera.
