Hypergram is an app and a social network for creating and sharing image filters and artwork to unleash your creativity in intriguing new ways. Hypergram lets you create filter-presets by combining an arbitrary number of filter-primitives, including gradation curves, a variety of blur-filters, keying-filters, masks, image generators of all kind and much more. Your creations can then be shared with the rest of the world by publishing it on the Hypergram network. Hypergram is also an amazing professional photo-editor. In contrast to other photo-apps, Hypergram doesn't compromise on features in order to give the user a questionable easier interface. Features and flexibility are always the number one priority. Whether you enjoy diving deep and create technically advanced filters or just want to take some beautiful images and share them with the community is up to you. Of course you can just scroll through other people's work and getting amazed by what they have done, too. Leaving a like or comment certainly will encourage them to create more great content. Hypergram is constantly enriched with more and more creative features over time. Although there's already a long todo-list of new things to build, your feedback can be very helpful to make the right prioritizations and letting us think out of our box.
