Fotee Cam: a whole kit for a better shot. Want the film look without touching a single setting? Saw a color grade you love, but can't recreate it? Fotee Cam does both. FILM CAM — FRAME IT, PRESS THE SHUTTER, DONE No editing, no settings. Exposure stays steady and highlights don't blow out, so even your first roll looks the way you pictured it. Every camera has its own personality: • T2 | The everyday street shooter. Cinematic tones, beginner-friendly. • GRD | The classic Ricoh look. Flip between Neg, Pos and Cold. • BM | Point-and-shoot film feel. Made for sunny days. • K80 | Soft, flattering portraits in sunlight. • Inst | Instant-film vibe. Pick the paper, let the frame surprise you. Great for close-up portraits. • C645 | Medium-format feel. Turn on XL for finer detail. • XE5, FX, Cream… and more on the way. Shoot more, fuss less: • One body, many styles. Change the look without changing cameras. • Live Photos, in film. The motion keeps the same color as the still. • Hold the shutter to burst. Shoot first, develop after — no shot gets held up. • Frames straight out of camera: Blurred Background, Glass Palette, Color Walk and 9 more. Ready to post. • Missed the exposure? Every shot keeps its negative. Re-develop it in the Darkroom with a different style or exposure. • Want to play? Double exposure, aspect ratios, date stamps, self-timer. • Launch from the Lock Screen, Control Center or the Action button. • Works offline with your everyday cameras. COLOR MATCH — ONE TAP TO MATCH A SAMPLE'S TONES Found a photo with exactly the colors you want? Save it, import it into Fotee as a Sample, pick one of your own photos and tap once. The same tones, now on your picture. • Drag the strength. Auto balances tone and color for each photo. • Not just photos: Live Photos and videos take the same grade. Hold to preview. • Light in the frame? Turn on Light Enhancement for deeper, cleaner contrast. • Every sample you keep builds your own library of looks. • Want to go further? Exposure, curves, HSL, grain and vignette are all there. MORE WAYS TO PLAY • A great frame hiding in a video? Grab Frame saves it as a photo or a Live Photo. • Ready to post: Frames, Add Watermark, Collage, ToLives. • Messy library? Cleaner. Swipe up to delete — oddly satisfying. • Shooting with friends: Dualgram, RemoteCam, Cast. • AI editing: HD Repair, Smart Cutout, Creation, Removal, Outfit Change.

Everything is processed on your device, and originals move to To Delete only after the new copy is saved. After you grant Photos access, the app gradually prepares search on your device. The first scan takes time; you can keep sorting elsewhere in the app while recognition continues. Progress is saved for your next visit. Recognition may miss some matches. Image recognition and the search index stay on your device and are not uploaded. No account is required, there are no ads, and the developer runs no online service for the app. Your media and usage records are not uploaded automatically. When you choose to share, iOS passes the selected content to the app or recipient you choose. If an original is stored only in iCloud, the system Photos service may download it. Swiping up only marks an item. Nothing is deleted until you confirm in the iOS system prompt. Confirmed items normally move to Recently Deleted and remain recoverable during the system retention period. Support: asa24@qq.com Xiaohongshu: Asa阿洒
