## What is Lomograph?

Lomograph turns your regular photos into experimental and creative analog film pictures. If you are looking for an easy to use app that transforms your favorite digital photos into nostalgic memories, then look no further! Lomograph has everything you need to reproduce the same style of vintage cameras by applying light leaks, retro filters, analog date stamps and special effects.

Lomography is traditionally characterized by its inherent low-fi quality. Lomographic images often have retro light effects caused by extra light leaking into the camera body, with ultra-saturated colors, blurring, vignetting, and other imperfections generally avoided in modern photography. When we launched the Lomograph app, the retro camera filter had a resurgence in popularity because the unique filters clearly stand out from all other photo editors.

Lomograph is available for free, but also offers various in-app purchases to unlock hundreds of filter variations.

Lomograph FREE photo editing features include numerous effects and filters.

Effects:
- random date
- custom date
- distortion
- dust

Filters: 
- sever
- iskra
- moskva
- malina
- zenit
- kedr
- voshod
- saint p
- leto
- date stamp

Each filter has many unique variations. Just tap on a photo that you are working on to apply different variations until you find the perfect one.

Premium Collections:
- Space Odyssey 
- Pastel Pink Tones 
- Scout Camp ""Artek"" 
- Nina's Gossips 
- White Nights 
- Tenderness 

Each collection contains more than 210 variations across 8 filters.

### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS APP!!🤩

*2026-08-22, version 1.7.7*

There are so many filters and every one of them are so beautiful and unique. The photos come out so clear and crisp every time. Soo user friendly and beautiful design. I have so much fun playing with my photos! Thank you Lomograph!🩵

### 3/5 — That was disappointing

*2026-07-18, version 1.7.7*

Poorly designed UI. I took a photograph which couldn’t be manipulated. Then the screen locked onto some silly gamified advert. I’ll give it 3 stars because I have a Lomo camera which is smashing. Otherwise I’d have given zero. Deleted.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-05-17, version 1.7.7*

The only thing it does is crop? Yeah that’s all I could get from your silly app so you gotta do better if you’re making an app that has other features than cropping then by all means allow us to figure that out. But if I spend five minutes and I can’t figure it out your toast.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2025-05-21*

Not working

**Developer response:** Thanks for letting us know. Please update to the latest version of Lomograph, as many issues are resolved in recent builds. If the problem continues, go to Settings > Contact Support in the app so our team can help you directly.

### 5/5 — Primo!

*2024-11-20, version 1.7.7*

Since the beginning of, this team has an excellent ability to evolve with the technologies & it is proven, time and again, with the sustained success of this media app. Good work! ✌🏽

### 3/5 — Doesn't apply filter variations to final picture

*2024-11-03, version 1.7.7*

When you tap on the filter to get a new variation of the filter, it doesn't apply the variation when you export it.

### 1/5 — Реклама

*2024-01-13*

Баннер внизу экрана, всплывающая реклама. Нельзя регулировать интенсивность фильтра.

**Developer response:** Thanks for sharing your feedback. Ads help support the free version of Lomograph, and you can remove them with a subscription. We’ve also noted your request for adjustable filter intensity. Please update to the latest version for the best experience.

### 5/5 — Thank you for keeping this application up to date

*2023-11-08, version 1.7.6*

Thank you for keeping this application up to date. 

The Best Light Leaks Application For The Photos.

My Device: iPhone 14 Pro Max (latest iOS)

With Kindest Regards-BR

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2023-10-24, version Version 1.7.5*

Could not even use it because there were too many ads, it’s annoying. You can’t go a step without getting ads. It’s an ad-minefield.

### 1/5 — Not a good app

*2023-08-17, version Version 1.7.5*

Too much advertisements
