## What is Phomo?

Analog film camera and photo editor for iPhone. Authentic film looks, live viewfinder preview, collages, and albums — fully offline, no account required.

Phomo brings together beautiful, straight-out-of-camera film styles, powerful but simple editing tools, custom borders, flexible grids, and album management in one easy package.

Avoid the flat “smartphone look” with Phomo’s authentic film simulations. Color shifts, film grain, bloom, halation, chromatic aberration, and more are built into each preset, so you can get the look you want in no time. Preview a style live in the camera and apply it automatically when you capture a photo, or apply different styles to any photo on your device. All edits are non-destructive, so you can try as many looks as you want, or revert to the original at any time. For more control, adjust the strength of the film effects with the Vintage slider, or tweak exposure, contrast, vibrance, and more.

Combine your photos into customizable grids — choose from a variety of layouts, then adjust the margins, colors, and aspect ratio. Save grids to your device or share them to another app.

Frame your photos with a border — choose a solid color with adjustable thickness and aspect ratio, or use a film frame including 35mm, 120, 4x5, and instant styles.

Add analog character with date stamps, light leaks, textures, and double-exposure effects.

Use tags and albums to organize your library so you can always find what you’re looking for.

Phomo works fully offline; no login or internet connection is required. Phomo is free to use indefinitely. To unlock additional features, you can purchase Phomo Pro as a monthly subscription or a one-time purchase. Phomo Pro includes:

### 5/5 — Great film simulations

*2026-09-08*

An excellent, and focused, film simulations app. It’s come a long way since the first version I tried.

### 5/5 — Fast support

*2026-09-03*

The developer is very quick to answer questions

### 5/5 — Like having an analog camera on your phone, plus optimized album organization

*2026-08-29*

The analog-style filters are incredibly accurate and give photos a beautiful, authentic film-camera look. I also love how easy it is to save and organize images with tags, it feels much more convenient and intuitive than the standard photo app. Everything works quickly, and the app is simple to understand and navigate. Such a fun and well-designed app!

### 5/5 — Finally chromatic aberration fir the rest of us

*2026-08-29*

“Yung Chomsky? The photo app developer?”

This app really does a great job at what it promises it says it will do. Good on you producer Yung Chomsky!

### 5/5 — Great photo app

*2026-08-28*

Does an excellent job bringing out the best in phone photos & has an easy to use layout. Also really nice that it's not a data-scraping or geared-toward-pay app from some big company, the creator is a skilled & knowledgeable street photography whose work is worth looking up. Clearly a product of care!

### 5/5 — this app rules

*2026-06-21*

i love this app shout out

### 5/5 — the best out there

*2026-05-30*

I shoot and develop my own film and this is the only app I have found to nail the texture, exposure, and highlights/shadows with very real film qualities.

### 5/5 — Yknow

*2026-05-28*

One of the best to ever do it.

### 5/5 — No FOMO, get Phomo.

*2026-05-13*

I’ve downloaded so many photo apps, and this is one of the best. It’s super easy to use if you want quick results, but there’s enough control if you like tweaking. The filters look like real film. I’ve tricked some of my snobby film friends. I like it so much that I paid for the full version, something I never do. Plus, the name is funny.

### 5/5 — Nice!

*2026-05-11*

Great film simulations, textures etc. Lots of fun to play around with, and much better value for money than a lot of these kind of apps on the market. I look forward to more updates!
