About

Grainera is a museum of photographic history. It is a walk through 175 years of how we have made images, from the very first silver plates to the early digital age. Choose any of 43 photographic eras and watch your photo become that moment in history. Each era is a faithful recreation of a real process or device class: the haunting blue-weighted tones of 1850s wet plates, the dreamy dyed-starch grain of the first colour, the milky white border of instant film, the four shades of green from a 1990s toy camera, the cool flash of an early-2000s compact. Every look is rendered natively on your device. A LIVING TIMELINE Spool through history like a film roll. A museum placard names each era and its year, with a short wall-label note on the process behind it. Narrow the timeline by period, colour, or medium to find exactly the wing you want to explore. SHOOT OR IMPORT Use the live camera to frame the world through any era in real time, or bring in a photo from your library. Then step through the decades until you find the look that fits. MADE TO SHARE, YOUR WAY Export a clean image, an Exhibit Card with the era details, a Before and After reveal, or a landscape Postcard with your own greeting. Sharing happens only through the system share sheet. There is no feed, no gallery, no audience to perform for. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Grainera keeps everything on your device. No account. No sign-up. No cloud. No tracking. Your photos never leave your phone, full stop. It is a quiet, personal darkroom, not a social network. FREE AND PRO Four eras are free to explore, forever. Grainera Pro unlocks the full museum, all 43 eras and every export format, with a weekly or yearly plan, or a one-time lifetime purchase. A free trial is included on the yearly plan. Available in English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese. Grainera Pro is an auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. A subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel anytime in your Account settings. The lifetime option is a single, non-renewing purchase. Terms: https://grainera.app/terms Privacy: https://grainera.app/privacy

What's New in Grainera

1.3.0

July 21, 2026

An update about the app itself – with full transparency. Starting with this version, Grainera sends a small set of fully anonymous usage statistics – for example, which eras get exported most often. This helps us decide which filter eras should join the museum next. What this means in practice: No photos, no photo metadata – your images never leave your iPhone, and all image processing still happens 100 % on-device. No personal data, no user or device IDs, no tracking, no ads. Can be turned off at any time: Settings → "Send anonymous statistics". Also included: minor under-the-hood improvements. Details, as always, at grainera.app.
