New for 2026: Pixelffector is back, rebuilt from scratch. Shoot live through 31 retro palettes, tune the dither, and export crisp pixel art at up to 4x. Free, no account. A camera that sees in 8 bits. Pixelffector renders your camera's live viewfinder through the colour palette of a classic console or home computer. The four greens of an old handheld. The sixteen colours of a classic 8-bit micro. The four harsh tones of early PC graphics. You compose the shot in the palette, live — not with a filter you slap on afterwards. WHAT IT DOES • Live retro camera — every frame is turned into pixel art in real time • 31 retro palettes — handhelds, 8-bit and 16-bit consoles, arcade cabinets, home computers and teletext, each one a real colour table • Real dithering — ordered Bayer and Floyd–Steinberg error diffusion, the same techniques retro hardware and pixel artists use • Tune after the shot — pixel size, palette strength, brightness, contrast and dither mode • Handheld-style border for that classic portable-console screen look • Full-resolution export at native, 2× or 4× — pixel blocks stay sharp, never blurred • Share your shots anywhere straight from the app PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No cloud. No ads. No tracking. Your photos go straight to your Photos library, in a Pixelffector album, and nowhere else. BACK FOR A SECOND RUN Pixelffector first launched in 2014. This version is rebuilt from scratch around a proper palette quantiser, with real dithering and full-resolution export. Made for pixel art, lo-fi and vaporwave aesthetics, 8-bit and 16-bit nostalgia, retro gaming fans, chiptune album covers, profile pictures and wallpapers. Pixelffector is free. The 31 built-in palettes are free forever.

Pixelffector is back — rebuilt from the ground up. The 2014 original couldn't keep up with modern iPhones, so we didn't patch it. We started over around a real palette engine: • Live viewfinder: compose in the palette, not with a filter afterwards • 31 hand-picked retro colour palettes • Real dithering: ordered Bayer and Floyd–Steinberg • Tune pixel size, strength, brightness and contrast after the shot • Full-resolution export at native, 2× or 4× • Optional handheld-style border • Make and share your own palettes (in-app purchase) • Private: no account, no cloud — shots go straight to your Photos Thanks to everyone who used the original. We hope you like the second run.
