FEATURES • Retro date stamp burned right into the photo • Three segmented fonts: classic LCD, modern LCD and a 14-segment data-back look • Four ink colors: classic orange, amber, red and white — each with a soft glow • Four corner positions, plus drag to fine-tune the exact spot • Adjustable stamp size • Numeric date formats (1998.07.15 / 98 07 15 / 07.15.98 / 15.07.98) with an optional time • Set any custom date and time, not just today • Warm-film and faded color filters • Take a photo or choose from your library • Export a high-resolution PNG and share anywhere Everything runs on your device.
