MeltCam

Point the camera, and watch your world melt, warp, and glow. MeltCam is a real-time psychedelic camera app. From trending VHS-style noise to glitch, kaleidoscope, neon, and tie-dye, switch between bold effects and reshape the world right inside your viewfinder. [What makes MeltCam different] ◆ Zero-lag real-time preview No heavy post-processing, no waiting. Effects transform your viewfinder the instant you tap them. You're not editing after the shot — the world is already warped before you press the shutter. ◆ Social-ready 1:1 square Preview and saved photo are pixel-perfect identical squares. Drop them straight into your Instagram or TikTok feed, profile, or thumbnail without second-guessing the crop. ◆ A bold lineup of effects - Melt: signs and shapes drip and flow like liquid - Tie-Dye: vivid tie-dye psychedelia - Wave: a sine-wave shimmer like looking through water - Mirror: symmetrical beauty born from a flip - Glitch: scanlines and noise, full digital decay - Acid: hue rotation paints the world in psychedelic colors - Plasma: undulating plasma light - Trip: a swirling vortex of mind-bending color - Vortex: a spiral that pulls everything inward - Kaleidoscope: peer into another world through a kaleidoscope - Neon Edge: outlines glow like neon signs - Prism Split: prism-shifted color separation - VHS Noise: gritty, retro 80s tape noise ◆ Photos and videos, ready to post Save photos and videos with the effect baked in, straight to your library. Record short videos up to 60 seconds. No extra editing step required. ◆ Front and rear camera Selfies or scenery, your call. Like the stock camera, the preview is mirrored while the saved photo is not — so what you share looks the way it should. [Made for you if you...] - Want photos and videos that don't look like everyone else's - Love glitch, psychedelic, and neon visuals - Shoot music, live shows, clubs, and festivals - Have outgrown standard filter apps - Want to play with the shot, not just edit it after [MeltCam Pro] Free users get unlimited use of the basic effects. Upgrade to Pro to unlock all the psychedelic, neon, and retro effects. [Supported languages] English, Japanese, Portuguese (Brazil), German, Spanish, Korean, French, Simplified Chinese Look through the lens, into another world. With MeltCam, turn what's in front of you into something that isn't quite real.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Camera Cube at none against MeltCam's shown. Camera Cube also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). MeltCam's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
