## What is Pixie+?

Relive the Y2K digicam era—every day.

Pixie+ is an iPhone camera inspired by early-2000s digital compact cameras. Strong flash, grain, color shifts, and an optional date stamp make nostalgic photos without complicated editing. Core shooting and My Gallery require no account.

■ Features
- Digicam-style D-pad and OK controls
- One-tap front/rear camera switch
- Optional date stamp
- Polaroid-style private gallery
- Save to Photos or share with the iOS share sheet
- Multiple filters and film-inspired LUTs

■ Friends
Send only the photos you choose to private, invite-code groups of 2–9 people. You can report a photo, mute a member, or leave a group. Friends uses an anonymous account without an email address. You can delete the account and its associated data from Settings.

■ Pixie+ Pro
Monthly and yearly auto-renewing subscriptions are available. Pro removes ads and unlocks unlimited saves and all filters. Your local price and billing period are shown before purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID. You can cancel in Apple ID subscription settings at least 24 hours before renewal, and restore prior purchases in the app.

■ Privacy
Regular shooting and My Gallery stay primarily on your device. Only content you explicitly send through Friends and its group metadata are processed with Firebase and Cloudflare for private sharing. Photos, captions, and nicknames are not sent to Firebase Analytics.

■ Ads
Free users may see Google AdMob ads at natural breaks such as after a completed capture. Pixie+ does not use App Open ads. The app remains usable if you decline ATT.
