Did I miss something today? Was the ability to take a photo using the volume buttons really that big a deal, or was their more to the update for Camera+

Nope, volumesnap was the only change but apple didnt like that little hidden easter egg
 
Got the tip-off from Gizmodo last night, was only a matter of time. Has MiTube been pulled too? - I can't find it in the UK store.
 
Lame. Glad I bought it though. Volume button snap works like a charm.

If Apple pulls that remote kill crap like Google, there's going to be WARRR!
 
What does it do?

Allows you to take picture with a physical button (the volume buttone) instead of tapping the screen. I picked up the app earlier this evening and love the hidden feature! It makes picture taking so much easier.

Do you have the issue where your volume buttons wont work properly (ie: music controls) until you kill the app from the multitask bar?
 
Was there an update earlier today? I don't see an option for volumesnap & when I tried the volume while the app was running, my volume acted normal.

Going to answer my own question. Follow these steps to activate VolmuneSnap.

A simple hack in Safari, just type “camplus://enablevolumesnap” in Safari’s address bar on your iPhone (no quotes) will enable the volume buttons to snap the shutter. I know this works in version 1.2.1 of Camera+, not sure about older versions. If you want to disable it, type “camplus://disablevolumesnap” in Safari (again with no quotes).

Since you don't see the option in the menu screen. You have to use the above method to turn it on/off. After, activating, I did a few test pictures & it works very well. I'm using version 1.2.1 I believe
 
Using the volume button is a nice feature. I was playing around with it yesterday. It's too bad Apple has to be so uptight about this kind of stuff.
 
They can't be surprised. Apple's policy about easter eggs seems pretty clear (see the referenced 9to5mac article).

Hopefully they'll get it sorted out, it's a neat little app.
