UZCam: Instant Film Camera
Shake or wait. Retro photos
Free · In‑App Purchases
Press. Wait, or shake. Write. A blank white print slides out and waits for a few words. Free manual controls, no ads. PRO items add a watermark; UZCam Pro removes it.
Press the shutter and a blank white print slides out. Let it develop while you wait, or shake your iPhone and watch the picture surface out of the white. Then write a few words on the border.
Unlimited photos. No account, no ads, no tracking.
PRESS, THEN WAIT OR SHAKE
The print slides out of the Dynamic Island on iPhones that have one, and from a slot at the top of the screen on other iPhones. Then it develops by itself: 60 seconds by default, or 30 or 90 in UZCam's Settings › Developing. Shake your iPhone to speed it up. It keeps developing if you leave the app, and an optional notification says when it is ready.
SEE THE LOOK BEFORE YOU SHOOT
Original looks with grain, most with glow, from soft and milky to cinematic, night and black-and-white, applied live in the viewfinder so the preview matches the print. Browse the film canisters and tap one; favorite with a heart. A Half-Frame look puts two shots on one print; CCD-style and flash looks bring an early-digital feel.
FRAMES, PAPER AND DECORATION
Classic, square, wide, panorama, postcard, ticket stub, film strips and more. Pick paper colors and textures, stack washi tape, stickers and photo corners, and shape the picture as a circle, heart or arch.
WRITE ON THE BORDER
Write with your finger in ballpoint, marker or crayon and add text stickers in handwriting fonts, even on a print that is still developing (from the Album). Fonts that come with your iPhone are included; marker, crayon and the bundled handwriting fonts are PRO. Date stamps are chosen in Settings and added when you shoot.
MANUAL CONTROLS, FREE
Simple mode keeps everything automatic; Manual mode puts sliders on the preview edges for white balance, exposure compensation, shutter speed, ISO, focus and zoom, with digital 28, 35 and 50 mm-equivalent steps. Aperture needs a variable-aperture lens and iOS 27 or later. Every camera control is free; "Restore defaults" resets them.
YOUR PHOTOS STAY YOURS
UZCam never uploads your photos or handwriting. Prints reach Photos only when you tap Save, or automatically if you turn on "Save to Photos when developed".
LIFT THE SUBJECT, KEEP ALBUMS
Turn on subject cutout, shoot, then tap what you want to keep: the rest becomes paper, the edge sparkles and the print slides out. It runs on your iPhone; give it a clear subject. Sort prints into your own albums, each with its own name, color and cover. Both are free.
FREE AND PRO
No look, frame, paper, decoration, brush, color, font or date stamp is locked, and nothing blocks the shutter. Items marked PRO are paid materials. You can still use them; a photo that uses one carries a watermark.
• Free materials only: the photo carries the small UZCam logo marks.
• Any PRO material: the photo also carries a diagonal UZCam watermark.
• UZCam Pro: neither mark, plus your own diagonal watermark text with adjustable intensity.
Free materials: 3 looks (Plain, Milk and Mono), the classic frame on snow-white paper with no decoration and a square-cut window, ballpoint pen and eraser in black or white, preinstalled iPhone fonts and the orange digital date stamp. Without Pro, exports are 1080 px wide; with Pro, 2400 px. Try everything first; upgrade when you want clean, larger photos.
ABOUT UZCAM PRO
UZCam Pro is a one-time purchase (Unlock) that does not renew, or an auto-renewable subscription (1 month or 1 year). All three give the same benefits. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm. A subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel in Settings › [your name] › Subscriptions. Restore Purchases is in UZCam's Settings; "Restore" is on the upgrade screen.

Ratings & Reviews
New in 1.1: subject cutout. Turn it on, shoot, then tap what you want to keep; the rest becomes paper and the edge sparkles. Albums of your own, each with a name, color and cover. UZCam is now available in Spanish.
