Shoot Photos Through a Liquid Lens

Liquid Lens is a camera with 20+ real-time effects built in: chromatic aberration, halation, warp, oil slick, gradient maps, and more, all rendered live on the viewfinder, so what you see is what you shoot. Layer as many as you want at once, then dial in your own look.

Layer effects your way, live or after the fact

Every effect renders live in the viewfinder at full frame rate and is built to stack with the others, so you compose the shot you actually want, combining as many effects as you like, without guessing how a filter will look after the fact.

◈

Layer effects on top of each other

Combine as many effects as you want, chromatic aberration with halation with warp, and dial each one in with its own slider, from a whisper to fully liquid.

✎

Upload a photo and layer effects in Edit mode

Import any photo from your library into Edit mode and stack the same effects used for the live camera, so you can build a look after the fact too.

◐

Live, not a filter

Effects run on the camera feed in real time via Metal, so the viewfinder always matches the final photo or video.

▣

Full-resolution capture

Photos capture at up to 48MP. Video records with effects baked in, no separate export step needed.

⬒

Straight to your camera roll

No cloud step, no processing queue. Capture, save, done.

No account required

Open the app and start shooting. Nothing to sign up for, nothing to sync.

Private by design

Liquid Lens doesn't have a server, an account system, or an analytics SDK, so there's nothing to send your photos to. Everything happens on your device.
