◎ Life in Ultrawide 21:9 Make cinematic photos set in the ultra-wide 21:9 format, directly from your iPhone. Complete the look with handpicked film effects that were HRZN originals: - Metropolitan — a modern film that produces subtly vivid colours - Cosmos — a dramatic film for high-contrast black-and-white shots - Violla — an artistic choice for colours that resemble those on an instant photo from the ’80s … and 40+ more. ◎ Make Your Cameras Life is more than cinema. You can build your own custom cameras that launch with one tap, ready for your day’s mood. Customize your camera with: - Aspect Ratios — the classic 1:1 square, a portrait-worthy large frame emulating 6:7, or DSLR 2:3. - Film Effects — customize the film effect that fits your mood, with customizable intensity to apply. - Preferred Lens — designate a selfie camera, or shoot landscape always with 20mm. The choice is yours! - Fine-tune details — further customize your look with highlight/shadow adjustments, colour fade, vignette, and exposure. - Timestamps! Ring in the nostalgia with handcrafted timestamp overlays that represent key eras of photography history ◎ Import Photos Once you build a camera, you can import photos from Photo Library. Edit your photos for a consistent look, suitable for posting online in a batch. HRZN is closely integrated with your iOS and iPadOS Photo Library. Your edits are always non-destructive and allow do-overs.
