1967: Retro Filters & Effects
rating aligns with reviewsFilm effects inspired by the 1960s were conceptually strong: precise grain, vignetting, and color shifts without oversaturation. After several updates a critical problem emerged: the app saves photos at under one megapixel, destroying the original image quality. Some users report brown banding on the finished image.
Many reviews describe specific technical degradation: an update reduced the export resolution to under 1 megapixel, changed the base filters, and added excessive edge blur. The rating dynamics and detail of complaints match a real product after a failed update.
A mismatch is an analytical signal, not proof that the rating was manipulated.
What users love
- Authentic film palette with grain and vignette. The filter transparency slider in older versions allowed precise control over effect intensity.
What users hate
- Export shrinks the image to under one megapixel. New filters add excessive edge blur that cannot be disabled.
Who it is for
Film aesthetic enthusiasts, but only if the developers fix the resolution degradation on export.
