Remember when your MySpace pics looked crunchy, grainy, and kinda iconic? This app brings that exact Y2K vibe straight to your iPhone. No fake vintage “presets” here — we’re talking real-time filters that mimic the quirks of early 2000s cameras: - Over-sharpened halos & lens blur - Grainy CCD noise (both luma and chroma, baby) - Flashy bloom on highlights - Chunky pixelation & lo-fi resolutions - Subtle lens warps + chromatic aberration - Amber-orange date stamps, straight off a 2002 Kodak - Browse painfully through taken pictures using the camera buttons You can even pick your year from 1995–2005 and watch the vibes shift from 640×480 cyber-café selfies to slightly “high-res” 2005 mall-rat pics. - Save shots to your camera roll in period-correct resolutions. - Use digital zoom, toggle flash, and slap that time stamp in the corner like it’s your AIM profile pic. The Best Part - No ads. - No in-app purchases. - No nonsense. Just pure throwback energy, like apps used to be — one download, full vibes, end of story. Shoot like it’s the 2000s, post like it’s 2025.

Read full description

PrompterOne is a voice-following teleprompter and recorder for creators, presenters, educators, and speakers. Keep your eyes near the lens while your script stays in view. READ YOUR WAY Choose Voice Follow, Manual, Fixed Speed, or Timed mode. Follow your natural pace, pause, and move between sections when you need to. Adjust text size, line spacing, cue width, and mirrored reading in Settings. RECORD IN ONE PLACE Switch between Prompt Only, Audio, and Video on the reading screen. Preview the camera behind your script, record a take, then play or share it from the recording library. Captions can be exported as separate files instead of being burned into the video. KEEP SCRIPTS ORGANIZED Create, edit, search, and arrange scripts in folders. Import text or JSON, add cue points, and keep your reading progress. An optional local computer display lets you show the script on a second screen over the same Wi-Fi network. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account is required. Scripts, progress, settings, and recordings stay on your device unless you choose to share or export them. Voice Follow requests microphone and speech-recognition access; Video requests camera access. Manual and paced modes remain available without speech recognition. PrompterOne helps you stay on cue and sound like yourself.
