Consumer tape
VHS
Soft, warm and slightly unstable, like a tape from the family shelf.
- Color bleed and tape softness
- Scan lines, tape noise, tracking wobble
- Horizontal tearing and dropouts
- Date stamp and REC overlay

Illustrated sample footage, processed by the app. Screens from the iOS app.
Four looks. Four eras.
Each mode is its own rendering pipeline with its own controls — not one filter in four colors.
Early digital camcorder
MiniDV
Crisper edges and a cooler, digital character.
- Edge sharpness with a faint halo
- Digital noise in the shadows
- Compression blocks and interlace combing
- Highlight clipping
Small-gauge film
Super 8
Warm grain and a gently moving frame.
- Film grain with adjustable size
- Gate weave and exposure flicker
- Dust and scratches
- Highlight halation and soft roll-off
Early-2000s compact camera
Early Digital
Punchy color, over-sharpened edges and digital texture.
- Low-resolution look
- Edge enhancement and sensor noise
- Clipped highlights
- JPEG-style blocking
The same illustrated scene, processed by each mode in the app.
A Look Lab, not a filter list.
Start from one of 24 curated looks, then shape it. Every mode shows only the controls that mean something for it.
- 24 built-in looks across the four modes
- Adjust color, grain, distortion, bloom and more — per mode
- Hold to compare with the original image
- Save your own looks, rename, duplicate and favorite them
Record, keep, revisit.
A small, focused workflow that works without a network connection.
Record with the look on
Choose a mode and a look and start recording. The look is rendered into the video file as you record. Audio is optional and off until you turn it on.
Keep it in your Vault
Your videos appear in a private on-device library with thumbnails, playback, sharing and deletion.
Give existing clips a new look
Pick a video from your library, choose a look and render a new copy. Your original is never changed.
Offline by design.
The apps are built to work without a network connection.
No network permission
The Android app does not request internet access, and the iOS app contains no networking code or third-party SDKs.
No ads, no accounts
No advertising, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases and no sign-in.
Camera and microphone on your terms
The camera is used to record. The microphone is only used if you switch audio recording on.
Your videos, your choice
Videos stay on your device unless you choose to share or export them.
