About this app

Retrica is a digicam filter camera app that recreates the Y2K CCD digital camera and 2000s point-and-shoot film look in real time. Retro color grading, film grain, and light leaks are applied before you shoot, not after. What you see in the viewfinder is what you save. 388 presets, 260+ of them free.

DIGICAM AND CCD PRESETS
Bring back the look of early 2000s digital cameras and disposable film: punchy saturated color, blown highlights, low-light grain, and the soft imperfection that modern phone cameras remove.
- Digicam: heavy saturation and coarse low-light grain from early CCD sensors
- Faded film: low saturation and soft contrast, disposable camera and lomo feel
- Cinematic: teal and amber color grading
- Warm analog: incandescent glow for indoor and evening light
- Monochrome: high-contrast black and white with visible film grain
- Clean and bright: modern presets for everyday shots

REAL-TIME CAPTURE
Every filter is applied live in the viewfinder before you press the shutter.
- Switch presets with a single tap while you frame the shot
- Light leaks, film grain, and vignettes for a lo-fi texture
- Timer, burst mode, flash, and front camera support

388 PRESETS, 260+ FREE
- Most filters usable without a subscription
- Save photos and videos with no watermark
- Favorites to manage the presets you use most

COLLAGE AND STUDIO
- Collage maker with retro stamps, vignettes, and grain
- Apply a different preset to each frame
- Double exposure: blend two shots into one film-style image
- Studio editing: exposure, color, and detail adjustments
- AI Beauty: natural portrait retouching that works with any preset

Vintage camera, retro filter, film camera look, digicam feel, disposable camera, and 35mm film, all covered in one app. Retrica introduced the first real-time camera filter in 2012 and has been downloaded over 600 million times.

FREE TO USE, WITH PRO OPTIONS
Retrica is free to download. You can use presets, capture photos and videos, and save without a watermark at no cost. Some features are part of Retrica Pro: saving custom presets, AI-powered enhancements, advanced editing tools, and exclusive preset packs.

Changing my review fro. 5* to 1*. This app used to be free and be the best photo filter app! Now its paid! Don't be fooled by what the developer says! THERE ARE NO FREE FILTERS! After you snap the photo it automatically asks you to pay. if you don't the photo is not saved! UNINSTALLED edit for the developer: why are you telling me about ads? I never mentioned it in my review?

Retrica has many free filters such as Azra, Fab, Suji, and many more. You get an ad/pop-up to subscribe when you use free filters but the photo will be saved or shared. If you want access to all filters, please purchase a Retrica premium subscription.

Been using this for years as its a beautiful app. However, it doesn't save my photos anymore. I have auto-save on, more than enough storage which includes a 256mb card. Cannot understand this as I use the standard/free filters and it doesn't even save those. Please can this be looked into as it seems I am not the only one experiencing this. Thank you.

Hi, we're sorry for the inconvenience. Retrica has many free filters, but if you use a premium filter without a subscription, the photo won't be saved or shared. If you get an error saving a photo even when using a free filter, check that you are logged in to your Play Store account. If you need more help, please email us at contact@retrica.co.

The only problem I am having is suddenly the photos I take are somewhat grainy. The outlines rather than being smooth, as they were at the start, are slightly distorted. EDIT: It only looks grainy after taking the pic but when I open the photo in the gallery it is perfectly clear. The only issue I have now, the photo flips after I take a pic. kinda like a mirror effect. Last reviewed this on 5/29/14.....just installed again and it's instantly forcing you to purchase a $10 package. 1 star.
