Such a sad part of iOS. I have several high quality photo apps I prefer, and almost always end up using the default one because its easier to access.
To be fair, Android also doesn’t make third party camera apps accessible while locked.
Good on the Lux team for making it optional, but this is yet another app that wouldn’t have needed to introduce a subscription model if Apple would just relent on its unbending services push and add a mechanism for paid upgrades to the App Store.

They fixed it. Just downloaded the bugfixed version and it restored my purchase.
24 minutes later from EU I downloaded the update and I’m locked out from Restore with a “Purchase Not Found” error.
That was confusing. When I saw the app and that it offers in-app purchases, I thought something minimal would be possible without a purchase. But after downloading and launching it, I see the prompt to buy the subscription or the one time purchase, and nothing more. The app description on the store doesn’t make this — that a purchase must be made to use it — clear either. Edit: An observation I’ve had is that third p…
