Can anyone recommend a decent I phone app to take photos on command? Im fed up with using the small remotes that have to be operated by your foot etc. Ideally I want to be able to give a command to the phone when photographing fish.

Thanks for all your comments, really helpful.

Don't know about I phones, but it only works with older versions of Android. It stopped working on mine after an system update.

You don't need an app. I've tried them and they're unreliable. Using voice command on the iPhone via the instructions below is by far the most effective method that I've found. It has never not worked.
When you're ready to take the shot / before attaching phone to tripod and positioning correctly:
1) Go To Settings --> Accessibility --> Voice Control
2) Switch it on
3) Turn camera on
4) Use the default voice command for the shutter button - which I think is "Turn Volume Down" - it will take a shot every time you say it. If you have the volume up / flash on then you'll get confirmation of a shot.

Whistle Camera works fine with the new iPhones, tested it with the 14 pro the other night. I had a version of the app years ago that was a bit hit and miss, but the current version has worked perfectly every time for me. You get very decent shots with the new generation of phones. Don't bother with the SLR or intervalometer anymore. Less to carry, better night shots and no problems with lenses streaming up.

I've just tried voice control it works really well.
Is it possible on the I phone to leave voice control turned on in settings but have it assigned just for the camera?
Tech isn't my thing.

I have not worked that out yet - not sure if it's possible or not. I just switch off voice control once the fish has been released, etc.

I've recently started using Sensory VoiceSelfie app and it's great. Like you I was struggling with remotes and my camera so downloaded the free app and gave it a go and just use my phone. So far nothing to dislike avoid it, it just works and I have 2 free hands to control the fish (which was very helpful last night when photographing a nice mid 30
