Select 10 MB, 25 MB, 50 MB, or a custom target from 1–200 MB. Add media from Photos or Files—or send it from another app's Share menu. Compress a mixed batch, inspect the result, then save or share the output where you need it. Built for email attachments, school or work forms, messaging, upload limits, and reclaiming storage.

dspsbl is a disposable camera, not a camera app. No live preview. No retakes. No edit button. Load a roll, wind between every shot, and press the volume button to fire the shutter. What you get is what you get — the same way it worked for the actual drugstore rolls of your childhood. Real film, real rituals - Physical winding with haptic feedback, modeled after an actual film advance wheel - Volume-button shutter, landscape-locked, no on-screen preview - Seal a roll when you're done — it's irreversible, just like sealing a real canister - Rolls can sit dormant for years. Pick one back up whenever you want and finish it Real and imagined film stocks From clean drugstore classics to rare specialty stocks: Daybreak 200, Mono Grit 400, Halo 800T, Aerochrome IR, Ghost IR, Solarized Mystery, Redscale, Cross-Process, Negative Strip, and more. Every stock has its own grain, contrast, and color signature...no two rolls, and no two frames, ever render exactly alike. Two ways to develop Cheap and fast at the drugstore, or slow and hand-tuned at the boutique lab. Try to save a specialty roll at the drugstore and you might not love what comes back — that's part of the deal. A real receipt for every roll Every developed roll comes with a printed-style lab receipt: film stock, dates, exposure count, lighting conditions, and processing cost. Optional in-camera databack burns the date into every frame, dot-matrix style. Earn film, don't buy it No subscriptions. No pay-to-win. Shoot, seal, and develop rolls to earn tokens, then spend them on new stocks, lab time, and camera upgrades — including a Wide camera body with a genuinely different lens and a distinct visual identity of its own. Half Frame for double the shots Load a Half Frame roll to shoot twice as many frames per canister — narrower, vertical exposures that pair automatically into diptychs, exportable as single composited images. Built for the shoebox, not the feed Rolls sit in your camera bag exactly like real film. Some finished the day they were loaded, some picked up years later. Export a full contact sheet of any roll, orientation of your choice, for sharing the whole story of a roll at once. dspsbl isn't trying to be the fastest way to take a photo. It's trying to be the way that makes you actually wait for one.
