Features

You can't see them until the roll is finished. After24 brings the disposable film camera to your iPhone: analog, grainy, date-stamped retro photos. Each roll has 24 exposures. You can't look at your photos until you finish the roll, drop it off at the photo lab, and wait for it to be developed. - Pick today's camera Standard, Retro, and Monochrome. Each camera has its own look, and each holds its own roll, so you can shoot all three separately. - Shoot and wind Press the shutter, then wind to the next frame. What you caught stays a mystery. - Drop it off and wait When all 24 frames are shot, add a name and a note and drop the roll off at the lab. Development takes 24 hours, and you'll get a notification when it's ready. - Open the envelope Your prints and negatives come back in a photo lab envelope. Shifts in exposure and color are kept as happy accidents, just like real film, and each print carries a date stamp in the corner. Save your favorites to your photo library. - Your photos stay on your device Photos are encrypted and stored on your device, and are never sent anywhere. - After24+ (one-time purchase) ・No ads ・Choose a development time of 24, 12, 6, or 1 hour ・Swap an unfinished roll for a fresh one
