## What is Vintage Film Camera?

Open Pixo, select from various Film Packs and take photos using the camera! Simply point and shoot, it’s that easy! You can also import existing photos from your camera roll.
Your photos will be processed just like real instant film photos. We have carefully developed various different preset filters, light leaks and instant film frame borders, each Pixo will be unique! 

Pixo’s will be stored in the in-app Photo Lab. Not satisfied with the desired effect? Unfold your creativity and edit your Pixo: Change the Film Pack, correct the Exposure and update or remove Light Leaks.

You can save Pixo’s in different formats and sizes. ‘Normal’ will save your Pixo without a background, the ‘Square’ option is perfect for Instagram posts and the ‘Stories’ option is made for stories (or use them in your TikTok videos!).

### 5/5 — Mi quería app

*2026-04-16*

En 2020/2023 descubrí esta app, desde ese momento me encantó porque a diferencia de otras aplicaciones, esta app es bastante intuitiva y el resultado de las fotos es increíble. En 2024 cambié de IPhone y no recordaba como se llamaba esta app, pero hoy en 2026 la encontré de vuelta. Muchas gracias por haber creado esta app.

### 1/5 — Cant reach my photos

*2026-01-01*

Hi, this app makes cutes photos but what is it worth to me when I cant access the library because it crashes. Each time. Right now my new years Eve pictures from yesterday are completely out of reach. Such a pity really.
Dear team, if you could make updates on this is would be appreciated. I would immediately pay a non subscription fee for an app that works well AND I would tell everybody it!

### 5/5 — Loved but not now

*2025-01-04*

Starting to close down on me every time I try and choose a photo. Booooo! This was my fave photo app! 😭

### 3/5 — HUGE n HEAVY!

*2024-05-14*

It's a great and straight forward app. But it gradually allocates a great deal of storage! I have to delete and reinstall it every now and then to free up space on my iPhone.

### 1/5 — Crashes constantly

*2023-11-07*

Fix it

### 2/5 — Love it, but it keeps crashing!

*2023-09-25*

Every time I try to edit the light leaks, it crashes. Please fix this and I’ll give you a five star review!

### 5/5 — Splended

*2023-04-22*

I LOVE this app!  I just want to know if PIXO Pro has the option to save the picture without the white border frame?

### 5/5 — thanks

*2023-02-20*
