Key Takeaways
- Apple reportedly considered acquiring Halide, the professional camera app made by Lux, for the iPhone 18 Pro launch
- A bundled pro camera app would give the iPhone Pro lineup native manual controls currently only available through third-party apps
- The move fits Apple's broader strategy of targeting working photographers but risks crowding out independent iOS developers
