Your phone takes photos that are too clean. CCD is not an app that decorates your pictures. It rebuilds an early-2000s compact digital camera inside your phone. You don't pick a filter. You turn on a camera. ■ Not a filter. A sensor. Most retro apps paint an effect on after the shot is taken. CCD doesn't. The moment you look at the viewfinder, it is already 2005. Oversaturated skies, skin that runs warm, greens that push too hard. Blown highlights, coarse sensor noise, sharpening turned up too far. Lenses that go soft toward the corners, color that drifts at the edges. All of it is what those cameras actually produced. Instead of making a good image, we rebuilt exactly the image of that era. ■ An object you operate Power it on and the boot screen runs. Half-press to focus. Press all the way and it clicks twice. Then "Saving..." holds for a moment. Nothing is instant here. The power-on chime, the focus beep, the shutter, the flash charging — the sounds those cameras made are all here. A battery meter, the date burned into the corner. The small things are what make the era. ■ What's inside · 12M / 8M / 5M / 3M / 2M resolutions Lowering the megapixels is a feature, not a compromise · 4:3 · 16:9 · 1:1 aspect ratios · Pinch to zoom, up to 3× — digital zoom, so the image softens as you go in · Swipe the viewfinder left or right to switch cameras · Flash — subject blown white, background dropped to black. That party-photo look · Date imprint — orange or yellow, two formats · Watermark — on or off, your call · Scene modes — AUTO / PORTRAIT / LANDSCAPE / NIGHT / INDOOR The mode dial those cameras had, doing what it actually did · White balance — daylight, cloudy, tungsten, fluorescent · Exposure compensation — ±2.0 EV in 1/3 steps When the highlights blow out more than you wanted, pull it down · Self timer (10s) and continuous shooting (3 frames) · A built-in gallery and sharing · PRINT — any photo on 4×6 paper or a 9:16 story layout · Three cameras — CCD-01 (2005, vivid) · CCD-02 (2007, calm) · CCD-03 (2006, portrait). Switch with the button by the shutter · IMPORT — run up to 5 photos you already took through the same sensor pipeline, then save ■ Not a phone. A camera. The whole time you hold it, it shouldn't feel like a phone. So we didn't use the usual app interface. There is no filter list anywhere. No intensity slider. What you adjust are camera settings. ■ Free, and fully unlocked Everything above is open from the very first launch. No in-app purchases. No subscription. No locked features. No limit on how many photos you can take, and no trial period. The app is free and supported by ads. They appear only in the gallery and settings screens, plus one short ad when you save imported photos — never while you are shooting. Turn on a camera from 2005. --- Contact: ckdgus1120@gmail.com

07 turns your iPhone into one fictional compact digital camera from 2007. Hold the shutter to focus, release to shoot, and watch each photograph develop through 07’s signature on-device image process. One camera. One look. Nothing to choose. 07 is not a filter you apply afterwards. There is no slider to move and no look to pick. Every exposure is metered as you take it and developed down one of three calibrated paths — ambient, flash, or low light — chosen from the light 07 measured and the ISO the camera actually captured at. Each frame is seeded from itself, so the same photograph always develops the same way. Take the picture, and the picture is the answer. Both of the iPhone’s cameras belong to 07. LENS turns the camera round without leaving the viewfinder: the rear lens carries the zoom ladder, and the front one sits at its own fixed wide and is mirrored in both directions, so the photograph on the card is the one you framed. IMPORT is the second door into the same process. It opens the system Photos picker, so 07 asks for no permission to read your library and receives only the photographs you choose there — up to 100 in a batch. Each one is read for its own exposure facts, developed down the same three paths, and written to the same card as a capture. It costs a frame exactly as a capture does. Every frame is kept in order on Card 01, the app’s private local card, under a four-digit counter that keeps climbing for the life of the camera and never rolls back. Review photographs in playback, see their capture details, add a warm date stamp, and share only when you choose. ALBUMS files frames under names you invent without moving them off the card. SELECT picks any number of frames at once, and SEND hands the whole set to a single share sheet. Optional Save to Photos makes add-only copies without browsing your library. 07’s two-stage shutter rewards a held half-press: focus, exposure, and white balance all lock before the frame is taken, the way a real one did. A quick tap still focuses and captures. Flash, zoom, timers, landscape shooting, direct-flash character, a flash that has to recharge, Card 01, albums, playback, sharing, and the complete 07-developed result are included from the first photograph. 07 includes 36 complimentary developed photographs. A one-time in-app purchase unlocks unlimited 07-developed photographs and permanent use of the full card. No subscription. No account. No ads. Camera permission is required to capture. Photos and location are optional. When location metadata is enabled, your current location is written into that photograph; an imported photograph carries the location its own file already recorded, and only while that same setting is on. Photographs are developed on the device; Photos copies may sync according to your Apple settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CCD at none against 07's 1. 07's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, rating, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.
