How To Light Paint With a Phone - Light Writing Love

Learn How To Capture Light Painting Photography using the camera on your Cell Phone In this light painting tutorial video. The Light Painting concepts in this photography tutorial apply to any cell phone camera iPhone, Android or any other.
The settings that I used in the app to capture the Light Writing were:
Light Trails Mode
Full Light Sensitivity
Shutter speed on Bulb
ISO 32
Some important tips where dark clothing and make sure you use a tripod!
In this video I capture a simple Light Writing using a iPhone 14 Pro Max with an app called Slow Shutter Cam. If you have a different type of cell phone (Android or other) you can still capture the your light painting art on it as long as you can record a long exposure, your cell phone camera may have this ability or you might need to download some sort of long exposure app like I did.
The App that I used is called: Slow Shutter Cam

Which software do you use when you do paintings with the camera and computer/laptop?

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

I do not use any software when using a regular DSLR!

What about for Android users. Any app recommendations

[@Nareimooncatt]

The Android phones I've used for the past several years have a manual mode in their stock app, so I haven't needed a third party app like in the video. Depending on the phone, you can usually get 20-30 seconds of exposure time (no bulb mode that I've found).
If your phone doesn't have a manual mode, "Camera FV-5" is a pretty powerful app that has manual controls. There's a free version with limited resolution support, or paid with full resolution and possible RAW capture support if your phone is capable. I've found some phones to be firmware limited on exactly what it can do.
I'm not aware of an app that does the live composites like in this video, but there may be something out there.
