What's New in Kodist

2026.7

November 6, 2026

iPhone Duo support is here, with a fun new way to literally open your film collection: unfold the phone. The inner screen shows your films beside each one’s story and sample shots, and closing the phone takes you straight back to the camera. Also in this update: - Kuma Gold 200 has been retuned for a brighter, more characterful look. - Film and lens changes made in the Lock Screen camera now carry over to the app reliably. Thank you, and happy shooting!

User reviews

Amazing, but…

I loved it, I had a challenge with “make a certain amount of shots to unlock new film filter”, it was a cool simple app until “pay to win” model kicked in. Now all the unlocked effects are off, my favourite Lomo is behind a paywall. The app is well-made, love everything about it but $7 is a little too steep for a nostalgic basic product. Especially when Huji exists, which does essentially the same thing. Shame but I choose to uninstall.

Hi there, I wouldn’t call it pay to win if it’s a one-time $7 purchase to literally unlock everything. I wish you the best and hope you find a great camera app you enjoy.

Awesome! Needs full screen preview.

Please add normal full screen view it’s too small

Thanks, and I’m glad you enjoy the app! Cheers 🍺

Tolle Kamera-Alternative

Die Kinderkrankheiten der App sind beseitigt und nun funktioniert alles bestens. Toll, eine Alternative zu haben, die auf KI-Einsatz verzichtet. Jetzt ist es wieder etwas mehr Arbeit für den Fotografen/die Fotografin, aber man wird mit schönen Ergebnissen belohnt.

Hi NF25899, I’m glad you enjoy Kodist and its no-AI look. Thank you for sticking with us over some technical rough patches. Here’s to more photos and greater adventures 🍺

Great

Replaced Zerocam with this because it’s free. I’d like to have manual focus control and some kind of exposure tool given this app tends to overexpose the photos
