BitCam vs Phase Camera

A blast from the past! Capture your photos with a unique 1-bit camera: only pure black and pure white pixels, no grayscale! BitCam's interface is delightfully old school, featuring chunky buttons and mechanical sounds the likes of which haven't graced your screen in over 40 years. In Camera mode, three different pixel resolutions let you experiment, and an 8-color mode brings you a little closer to the current day while preserving the distinct aesthetic. Or jump over to the editor to dither any photo from your library and experiment with resolutely modern colors & gradients. Clean, high resolution PNG output means you can print those files, use them in digital collages, or other art projects. You can also now run BitCam natively on your iPad, and your Mac! And on Mac, you can install a system extension to use BitCam in any app that uses the camera: Zoom, FaceTime, Google Meet, WebEx, Photo Booth, etc. The camera mode is entirely free and unlimited. The editor mode offers a 3 day trial, after which it requires a one-time in-app purchase for full access, on all of your account's devices.

Phase is a camera app that gives you easy access to the tools most important for composing that perfect shot: cropping and zooming. Onscreen sliders let you easily adjust every aspect of the composition — and you can configure them to fit your own preferred workflow. Phase also offers a variety of interesting filters to make your photos more interesting. You can even create your own filter effects — the possibilities are infinite. Settings are accessible just by turning the phone sideways.
