FILCA
Read full descriptionHide full description
FILCA is not a filter app — it's a whole 2000s digital camera in your pocket. Silver body, black-bezel LCD, engraved buttons, a D-pad, and that motor sound when the lens barrel slides out. Press the on-screen shutter and it fires like the real thing. ■ 20 FILM LOOKS From the core four — DAY OUT, DAY IN, NIGHT OUT, NIGHT IN — measured from real film photos, to MONO, an old-TV broadcast look, a faded travel negative, and a 13-film collection of pastels, golden hour, café tones, blue hour, wine-bar evenings and Y2K digicam. Pick your film for the light you're in. ■ EVERY FILM IS A DIFFERENT CAMERA Each film has its own lens and darkroom character — not just color. Corners that sink into black, dreamy pro-mist glow, purple fringing and a flash hotspot, CRT scanlines, toy-lens edge blur, coarse silver grain. Two films never feel like the same machine. ■ EVERY SHOT IS DEVELOPED, NOT FILTERED Each photo goes through a full darkroom pipeline: lens distortion, halation glow around lights, film grain, vignette, dust, and the occasional light leak. Exposure and color drift a little on every frame — no two photos ever come out the same. ■ A REAL CAMERA, NOT A CAMERA UI - Shooting modes: Auto, Program, Twilight, Twilight Portrait, High Sensitivity - Self-timer, burst shooting, zoom rocker - Brightness dial, hand-shake simulation for that honest 2000s blur - Date stamp — or engrave your own message - On-screen OSD menu straight out of a 2005 compact camera ■ 10 FREE SHOTS Your first roll is on us. Shoot 10 photos free, then subscribe for unlimited developing. No account. No ads. Your photos never leave your phone. ■ SUBSCRIPTION FILCA Monthly — $0.49 per month, auto-renewable.

See the moments you missed. You can't be everywhere at once. MultiRoll lets everyone at your wedding, trip, birthday or party shoot into one shared album, so you can see the whole event — not just the moments you happened to capture. No more chasing down photos. No more asking, "Can you send me those?" ONE SHARED CAMERA Start an album and invite your crew with a QR code or 6-character code. Once they join, anything they shoot is shared with everyone in the album in seconds. Photos from other people arrive live, right on the camera screen. Keep shooting and watch the story of the event come together around you. CAPTURE IT YOUR WAY MultiRoll opens straight to a real camera with: • Photo and video • Front and back cameras • Flash • 0.5x, 1x and 2x zoom • Tap to focus • 12 built-in looks • An album-wide look chosen by the host Choose from natural, film-inspired, black-and-white and camera-style looks. Some looks add a little extra character, including Disposable with a date stamp and Instant with a frame. SEE THE WHOLE EVENT The shared album brings everyone's shots together in one place. Browse the full grid or explore views like People, Moments and Highlights. Open photos full-screen, pinch to zoom, like your favorites and leave comments. Because the best photo from the night might be one you weren't there to take. MAKE IT YOUR ALBUM Give each album its own identity with custom covers featuring patterns, colors, title fonts and up to three cover photos. Create a printable poster with the album's QR code so guests can join easily. SHARE ONLY WHAT YOU CHOOSE Save any shot to your Photos, or turn on automatic saving for your own shots. You can also upload specific photos and videos from your library. MultiRoll never reads your photo library or automatically shares anything from it. You choose exactly what to upload. WORKS OFFLINE Keep shooting without a connection. Your shots stay on your phone and send automatically when you’re back online. You can also choose to upload only over Wi-Fi. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Albums are private. Only people in the album can see what’s shared. YOUR EVENT, FROM EVERYONE’S POINT OF VIEW The photos you take are only one version of what happened. MultiRoll gives you the rest of the story.
