Liquid Lens is a camera built around one idea: layer effects live, save the look, shoot it again in one tap. Most camera apps make you pick a single filter. Liquid Lens lets you stack chromatic aberration, film grain, warped glass, and a hand-tuned gradient map all at once — and watch it composite in real time on your screen before you ever press the shutter. When you land on a combination you love, save it as a named preset and it's one tap away forever. No rebuilding your look shot by shot. EVERYTHING RUNS ON YOUR DEVICE Every effect is a custom Metal shader running locally through your GPU. Nothing is uploaded, nothing routes through a server — your photos and video never leave your phone. That also means zero lag between moving a slider and seeing the result on screen. LAYER YOUR EFFECTS, LIVE Combine any number of effects at once and see the composited result in the viewfinder in real time — not a preview render, not a "processing" screen. What you see is what gets captured, at full 48MP resolution. SAVE YOUR LOOK AS A ONE-TAP PRESET Dial in a stack of effects exactly how you want it, then save it and name it. Every slider value, every palette choice, and your warp level are stored together. Tap a saved Look and your entire stack snaps back instantly — no more re-dragging six sliders to match a look you had yesterday. EDIT PHOTOS FROM YOUR LIBRARY, TOO Effects aren't just for new shots. Pull any photo from your camera roll into the same live editor — same sliders, same presets, same Metal pipeline — and apply your layered look to photos you already have. 20+ EFFECTS TO STACK Color grading: Chromatic Aberration — edge-weighted RGB split Halation — warm highlight bloom Hyper — saturation that pushes color while crushing shadows Pink & Glow — a two-part beauty grade (faded-film color shift + dreamy highlight bloom) Blacks — shadow crush Oil Slick — drifting thin-film iridescence on highlights Solar — Sabattier tone-inversion on highlights Gradient Maps — 10 cinematic color-grade palettes (Sunset, Vapor, Ocean, Neon, Aurora, Ice, Acid, Rose, Noir, Matcha) Texture & distortion: Grain — animated film grain Sharpen Zoom Blur — radial motion blur from center Mesh — live 3D wireframe displacement Chrome — liquid-metal relief effect Polar — polar coordinate warp Trails — light trail smearing Ripple — animated water rings Fractal — reeded shower-glass refraction Marble — flowing ink/marble domain warp Warp — 4-level reverse-fisheye distortion, tap to cycle BUILT FOR ACTUALLY TAKING PHOTOS Full-resolution capture Photo and video capture, front and back camera Drag-to-adjust exposure control (-2 to +2 EV), right on the live preview Three aspect ratios: 4:5, 5:7 and 9:16 Flash for back camera, simulated screen-flash for front camera selfies Built-in gallery for everything you shoot in-app ONE PRICE, NOTHING ELSE TO BUY $2.99, once.
