Searching for ViewFinder simulator
1

I have been successfully using a app called magic viewfinder in my mobile to simulate focal lens via my camera in mobile. It's a great assert as it would help get the perspective when travelling even when i don't have my camera / lenses with me.

They can effectively show the perspective crops of tele focal lengths by cropping  but they are limited by wide end at the actual main camera's focal lengths.
This is how we are limited by main camera when we go ultra wide angle

But we all have mobiles with ultra wide angle cameras. So if we could switch camera these apps are using we could effectively get the preview of wide angle focal lengths.

Nowadays these cameras are common

Do you use or heard about any app that can let us switch camera in mobile to UWA ?

I did mail to developer of the app i'm using.
