Old Video Camera
Read full descriptionHide full description
Old Video Camera turns your phone into an 80s camcorder. The soft, wobbly look of a worn tape is applied while you record, so what you save is already finished. Nothing to edit afterwards. How it works - Point and record. The analog look is written into the file, not added later. - Switch 4:3, 3:4, 1:1, 16:9 and 9:16 with a button. You never have to turn your phone. - Front or rear camera, with a T/W zoom rocker like the old decks had. The look - Colors bleed sideways, the way tape handled color. - Scan lines drift, a tracking band rolls slowly, the bottom edge tears. - Grain sits in the picture, and the sound takes on the narrow, wavering tone of a linear tape track. Date and readouts - Burn the date into the picture, with the time or without it. - Show the REC dot, battery and zoom bar the way a camcorder viewfinder did. - Every control answers with an old mechanical click. Privacy Your video and audio are processed on your device. Your video never leaves the phone unless you save it to your own photo library. Free with ads. A one-time purchase removes the ad shown after recording. Every camera feature is free.

Turn any photo into a 2004 digicam shot with one tap. And here's the magic: if your photo remembers when it was taken, MAKE IT 2004 stamps the REAL date in glowing orange โ your 2019 beach day becomes a found memory. Free. No account. Your photos never leave your phone. Old digital cameras had tiny CCD sensors and aggressive processing: harsh flash, blown highlights, crushed shadows, loud colors, grain, sharpening halos โ and that orange date stamp burned into the corner. People pay $150+ for a 20-year-old camera to get this look. Your thumb can do it for free. WHAT IT DOES โข One tap: modern photo โ 2004 digicam shot โข Four moods: Flash (basement party), Vacay (oversaturated sun), Low Light (high-ISO grain), CYBR (cool Y2K chrome) โข THE DATE STAMP KNOWS: if your photo remembers when it was taken, we stamp the real date โ your 2019 beach day becomes a found memory, stamped '19. Or set any year from '99 to '09. โข Authentic 4:3 digicam frame, 3-megapixel output, real JPEG artifacts โข Hold the photo to peek at the boring original PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your photos never leave your device. No account, no upload, no tracking, no data collected. No sliders either โ it does one thing.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Make It 2004 at none against Old Video Camera's 1. Make It 2004 also leads on ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
