  1. v3.6iOS
    Optimized distortion filters:
    // Temporal Shatter - Time fractures across the image. Moments split, repeat, and misalign, as if multiple exposures are trying to exist at once.
    // Pressure Veil - Invisible forces reshape the image. Structure compresses, swells, and bends as if pressed through shifting fields.
    // Consumption - Dark mass overtakes the image. Structure is gradually absorbed, leaving behind only fragments of what was there.
    
    # Filter Info Overlay fix - Tap the "?" button next to any filter name to see an explanation of the filter concept, how it behaves, and tips for getting the most out of it. Tap anywhere to dismiss.
    
    Optimization:
    Persistent Menu Fix
    Auto-select first filter when switching tabs
  2. v3.5iOS
    Three new distortion filters:
    // Temporal Shatter - Time fractures across the image. Moments split, repeat, and misalign, as if multiple exposures are trying to exist at once.
    // Pressure Veil - Invisible forces reshape the image. Structure compresses, swells, and bends as if pressed through shifting fields.
    // Consumption - Dark mass overtakes the image. Structure is gradually absorbed, leaving behind only fragments of what was there.

    X Filters - Motion based filter optimization.
    The six reactive filters have been streamlined behind the scenes. Tilt to shift thresholds, melt surfaces, collapse ink, and create ghostly trails… all in real time. Capture any moment with the FREEZE button to export exactly what you see.
  5. v3.0iOS
    X Filters - Your Motion, Your Image

    Six new reactive filters that respond to how you hold and move your phone. Tilt to shift thresholds, melt surfaces, collapse ink, and create ghostly trails… all in real time. Capture any moment with the FREEZE button to export exactly what you see.
    
    Six new Distort filters let you tap anywhere on your image to set the effect center. Spin pixels into a vortex with Event Horizon, stretch them like elastic fabric with Gravity Stretch, or shatter them into corrupted signal fragments with Fragment Field: each with a shape picker and fine-tuned controls. Three new Live filters that let you Freeze and capture your image.
    
    Five new vector filters: Trace Tone, Relief, Echo Grid, Parasite, and Residual Self.
