Old Phone Camera turns your iPhone into four legendary cameras from the smartphone era — 2007's grainy VGA original, 2010's crisp glass shooter, 2012's sharper sensor, and 2014's flat, modern look. Every mode recreates the real optics, color science, and quirks of the original hardware, not just a filter slapped on top. FOUR ERAS, ONE CAMERA • Phone 1 (2007) — soft focus, warm color cast, low-res VGA charm • Phone 4 (2010) — the glass-and-steel look, sharper but still nostalgic • Phone 5 (2012) — bigger sensor, cooler tones, the classic 2012 feel • Phone 6 (2014) — flat design era, 60fps video, the last "old" look before modern computational photography DEVELOP AS… Already shot a photo? Re-develop it through any other era's look after the fact, right on your camera roll copy — your original is always safe. INSTANT-PRINT EXTRAS Add a date stamp or an instant-print border to any shot for that authentic pocket-camera feel, without touching the original file. CAPTURE DETAILS See the resolution, JPEG quality, frame rate, and file size behind every shot — because the old phones had real technical fingerprints, and we kept them. Phone 6 mode is free forever. Unlock All Eras once to get Phone 1, Phone 4, and Phone 5 modes plus Develop As for every era — no subscription, no ads, no accounts.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Old Phone Camera at none against Time's 1. Old Phone Camera also leads on ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
