About

Welcome to the future of analog. TruFilm isn’t just another digital filter mimicking a vintage look—it is a painstakingly engineered recreation of a classic 35mm SLR camera, right in your pocket. We’ve brought the authentic look, feel, and mechanical soul of analog photography to your phone so you can trade endless digital burst modes for the thrill of the photographic process. Powered by a custom RAW-processing engine, TruFilm goes beyond basic color presets. It authentically recreates physical film characteristics like red halation, chemical crosstalk, optical softness, and true-to-life grain structures based on actual film physics on the quantum level. SHOOT WITH INTENTION Just like a real roll of 35mm film, you only see the result after the photo has been taken. There is no instant gratification and no endless camera roll. Once you press the shutter, you must wait a moment while your image "develops," keeping you present in the moment rather than staring down at a screen. TRUE MECHANICAL CONTROLS • Match-Needle Light Meter: Read the light in your scene and balance your exposure using the classic needle-and-circle analog meter. • Tactile Shutter Dial: Take full control of your light and motion. Spin the mechanical dial to select speeds from a slow 1s drag all the way to a frozen 1/10000s. • True Manual Focus: Switch from Auto "A" to Manual "M" and use the custom focus slider to pull focus exactly where you want it. • Bulb Mode "B" (Coming Soon): Capture stunning, multi-frame long exposures for night photography and light trails. Just tap to open the shutter, and tap again to close it. • Interchangeable Prime Lenses: Quickly swap your glass between 0.5 (Ultra Wide), 1.0 (Main), and 2.0 (Telephoto) focal lengths. 6 AUTHENTIC FILM STOCKS Carefully choose your roll for the day. Each stock reacts uniquely to light and color: • Portra 400: The gold standard for natural color, gorgeous skin tones, and warm nostalgia. • Tri-X 400: A classic, high-contrast black and white film with gritty grain—perfect for dramatic street photography. • Vision3 500T: A cinematic motion picture film balanced for artificial light, delivering moody, teal-tinted shadows. • CineStill 800T: The ultimate low-light champion, famous for vibrant colors and its distinct red halation around bright lights. • Ektar 100: Ultra-fine grain with vivid, punchy saturation. The absolute best choice for bright daylight and landscapes. • Silica 100: Our custom fine-grain monochrome film with crushed blacks, cool-toned shadows, cool midtones, and dramatic highlight rolloff. THE 36-A-DAY CHALLENGE Want the ultimate analog discipline? Toggle on the "36 A Day Challenge" in Settings. Lock your camera to a single film stock with exactly 36 frames for the next 24 hours. No switching, no deleting. Just you, your camera, and the world around you. Your photos are saved beautifully in your private, in-app "Developed" Gallery, where you can review your roll and export them in stunning high-resolution to your Camera Roll or optimized for your social feeds. Load your film. Dial in your exposure. Capture the world exactly as it feels.

Base iPhone Optimization, 36 A Day Challenge, & New Films! Massive Base iPhone Optimization: We've completely overhauled the UI and camera image settings for standard iPhone models (13, 14, 15, 16, and SE). The viewfinder, shutter dial, focus controls, and exposure meters are now perfectly scaled and aligned for your specific screen size. We've also optimized the image capture pipeline specifically for non-Pro camera hardware so that each camera and camera system performs as intended. The "36 A Day" Challenge: Ready to test your skills? Pick ONE film stock and get exactly 36 frames for the next 24 hours. No changing film, no re-takes, and no editing. Shoot like you mean it! Submit your best shot right from the gallery each month to win exclusive, one-of-a-kind film stocks. Two New Premium Film Stocks: We are thrilled to introduce two incredible new stocks to your camera bag. Unlock Aerochrome 1443, a false-color infrared film that transforms green foliage into vibrant pinks and reds, and Pyrochrome 400, a bold, warm-toned film with fiery reds and deep contrast. Pyrochrome is a TruFilm Original. Robust UI & Performance Upgrade: The app looks and feels better than ever. We've introduced a stunning new visual film selection menu, streamlined the settings, and added a lightning-fast background scanner to the Gallery so your photos load instantly without draining your memory.
