Original release notes

Everything is new: the app has been rebuilt from scratch, nine years after the first version.

Several ways to make the notch disappear instead of one, your photo framed the way you want, a preview before you keep it, and a picture at the exact size of your screen.

Available in six languages, and still with no ads, no account and no tracking.
