Frequently Asked Questions
On the main camera screen, swipe left or right across the model selector at the bottom of the screen to cycle through Classic M, D Classic, CCD R, and D Exp. Each model instantly applies its unique color tone, grain, and texture to your viewfinder in real time.
Switch to Video mode using the mode toggle on the main screen. The current film model's grain, color tone, and optional scan-line effects will be applied directly to your recording. You can adjust warmth and vignette before or after recording using the editing tools.
Snap Camera Mode is a fast-capture mode designed for spontaneous, candid photography. The shutter fires instantly with minimal delay — ideal for street photography and fleeting moments. Just point and tap; Retrocam applies your current film look in the background.
Tap the Edit icon after taking a photo (or before shooting, in live mode) to open the adjustment panel. From there you can fine-tune film grain intensity, light leak position and opacity, vignette strength, and halation (the glow around bright highlights that mimics real film emulsion).
Tap the Frame icon on the camera screen to select your aspect ratio: 2:3 for classic film portrait framing, 1:1 for a retro square format, or widescreen for cinematic looks. You can also enable film border overlays from this menu to make your photos look like physical prints.

Tips for the Perfect Retro Shot
Shoot in golden hour light (sunrise or sunset) — warm natural light pairs beautifully with analog film tones.
Try Classic M for portraits and street photography; switch to CCD R for bold, Y2K-style party shots.
Enable light leaks for an extra dose of authenticity — each shot will feel genuinely pulled from an old photo album.
Use the 2:3 aspect ratio for a classic film portrait look, or 1:1 for a retro square aesthetic.
Slightly overexpose bright scenes to get that dreamy, faded film look — especially effective with D Exp mode.
Add film border overlays to make your photos look like real physical prints when sharing online.
Record short 8mm video clips of everyday moments — the vintage grain makes even mundane scenes feel cinematic.
