The joy update. • Sound: little retro sounds for every press, wind and develop. They stay quiet when your phone is on silent. • Live Photos: every frame comes back with its moment of motion, in its own album. • Place stamps: print the town you shot in on your frames, next to the date. • Load by the dial: pick your film, who shoots it and whether you can peek, one turn and one press at a time. • Frost: a cold, clean winter film, on the shelf from December 1 to January 31. • Shared rolls get ready while the app is open, so the reveal starts the moment the roll opens. • Stronger haptics, clearer labels and fixes throughout.
