GLIT

Read full description

GLIT is a vintage camera and photo editor with real analog filters, 35mm film tones, warm light leaks, soft lens blur, and authentic film grain. Recreate the mood of 90s and Y2K photography with textured, emotional, and beautifully imperfect edits. Inspired by disposable cams, instant cameras, and creative imperfections, GLIT brings back the raw magic of analog photography in a fast, private mobile app. All without AI or cloud processing to respect your privacy. -- Key features: -- • Vintage Film Camera: Shoot directly in GLIT with a built-in analog cam. Capture with real film aesthetics from the moment you press the shutter. • Auto-Develop: Let GLIT develop your shot automatically with random analog surprises or fixed camera profiles, then fine-tune to your taste. • Analog Film Filters: Inspired by vintage 35mm stocks, expired film rolls, and nostalgic color palettes like pastel haze, dusty sunsets, and neon nights. • Light Leaks & Lens Flares: Random glow and streaks you only get from cheap plastic cameras and film accidents. • Chromatic Aberration & Vintage Lens: Soft corners, color fringing, and that dreamy distortion only an old camera could create. • Motion Blur & Camera Shake: Pan, spin, or zoom to mimic the dynamic feel of real handheld shots. • Diffusion Filters: Add hazy glow, sheer-fabric softness, and cinematic mist for dreamy, emotional photos. • Film Halation: Nostalgic reddish bloom straight out of the analog days. • Colored Vignette: Deep, moody tints on the edges, like retro lighting gels. • Film Grain: Not just an overlay but natural film grain that looks and feels analog. • Film Dust: Soft vintage dust for an authentic film look. • Film Date: Classic timestamp overlays straight from old Y2K point-and-shoot cameras. -- Why GLIT? -- • From shooting to editing, a complete analog experience in one app. • Real photo filters that mimic analog behavior. • Not your typical photo editor, celebrate the imperfections in your photos. • No AI, all your photos are processed locally to respect your privacy. GLIT is a love letter to the analog era, a little rebellion against pixel-perfect photos. It's for artists who miss the mess, the unexpected beauty. Tag your edits with #TheGlitLook and remind the Internet that perfection is boring. Terms of Use (EULA): https://glit.nobulabs.com/terms.html Privacy Policy: https://glit.nobulabs.com/privacy.html

Point. Shoot. Magic. Rewind is a chaos film camera. You pick the kind of roll and take the photo — the rest is out of your hands. Rewind chooses the film stock, the camera, and how every frame develops, all hidden until your roll comes back. No filters. No preview. No retakes. You shoot a roll, you wait for it to come back, and then you meet every frame for the first time. Some are beautiful. Some are strange. None of them are quite what you expected — the soul of a moment already gone. THE RULES • You take the photo. Rewind decides the look. • No filters, no presets — the look is never yours to pick. • No cherry-picking — a roll is all or nothing, the good and the strange. • You never see a frame until it develops. THE FILM — every roll is a different world: • CLASSIC — clean, timeless color and black & white. • HALF-FRAME — two moments paired into one frame. • DOUBLE EXPOSURE — one frame, two lives. • PLASTIC — toy-camera softness, light leaks, happy accidents. • CHAOS — one of a kind, never the same twice. • FILM OF THE MONTH — a fresh curated stock, every month. THE WAIT Rolls don't develop on the spot. You shoot, you set it down, and it comes back when it's ready — the way film always did. The anticipation is the whole point. WHY REWIND • A real, seeded film look — not a filter dropped on a JPEG. • Real film fingerprints: grain, halation, the odd light leak. • Finish the print by hand — push/pull, print balance, density. You shape the print, never the look. • A Gallery for the frames you love, built to be looked at. • Point and shoot — the look is the only thing out of your hands. REWIND+ Free to shoot — a roll every month. Go unlimited with Rewind+ ($5.99/month or $49.99/year): every camera and film, double exposures and CHAOS whenever you want, faster developing, member-only stocks, and the Film of the Month. Rewind is quiet on purpose. It's for the photo you forgot you took — the one that comes back better than you remember. SUBSCRIPTION Rewind+ is an auto-renewable subscription: $5.99/month or $49.99/year. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
