Retro Camera Plus for Android
In spite of not having been upgraded in a long while. I'd say it's top three on Android in its class. Kinda surprising that no one has followed suite and produced a more up-to-date competitor.
My favorite, go-to camera app for years. I think I had it before Instagram came to android. Some of my favorite photos were created with this app. Unfortunately, an upgrade to a Samsung Galaxy S7 has rendered the app useless. With no way to access the settings menu, the camera now only outputs a 604x604 pixel image. I can't customize anything, can't turn off frames, set resolution, or keep originals. I'll gladly pay for the app again if you can fix it! Always been a 5-star app for me, but not on this phone.
I've been using this app across several phones and it sucks to find there's no settings option in Samsung A7. This works best in the latest Sony Xperia phones. This app needs to be updated now. It's one the best app in its category but developer support is sorely lacking.
I always use this app rather than any preinstalled camera app. If I had a request, I would request the ability to add text beneath the Xolaroid 2000 camera for details. Nevertheless, a brilliant app.

I've been using this app since my Nexus One. It's been my favorite "analog" camera app of all time. I've used this now on 4 different phones since the N1. The phones get bigger and faster, yet the app is more laggy now on my HTC One than my old Nexus One. The whole app needs a big refresh to fill the space of the higher resolution phones out now. The graphics are looking too small especially the text inside some of the graphics. My one BIGGEST gripe about this app is that the "high resolution" saves are different sizes across devices. My N1 was 1500x1500px... HTC Ruby saved at just under 2000x2000px, currently the HTC One saves at only 1200px?? I'm guessing the "high resolution" option is camera resolution dependent here. This should NOT be the case. The high res file sizes should be the same regardless of camera resolution or device; I'd say that a 2000px file size is decent and acceptable for this app. I'd gladly pay again for a new and updated version of this app and I'm sure others would too!
...this app's still functioning, mostly, despite tomorrow being the THIRD ANNIVERSARY of Urbian's last update to it. That update, btw, addressed Jellybean glitches (future Android historians, please note I am running Marshmallow, and there are perfectly good betas etc of N making the rounds these days).JELLYBEAN! Amazing. It does freeze up now & then, but not as much as most of the rest of my apps, and they're all as up-to-date & official as I can get them. EDIT 7 months further on, still as useful as ever.

Dumb don't waste time
Still really like this app. But the dated UI and features keep me from using it regularly. It needs a major update. There should be Shortcut options for putting individual cameras on the home screen. We could probably do without the tiny viewfinder and graphic representations. It's clever, but really hinders proper picture taking on a smart phone.
I've been using this camera for years and love the simplicity and the style of the pics, but ever since I moved to my nexus 5x the viewfinder is upsidedown. Is it an update issue?
I've had this app since android os came out. it is not working properly on my s4 active. I love this app, paid for it and use it a lot. please fix.....it still force closes, and is now free....this app has turned into garbage
Dumb don't waste time
Wat I love, is the cameras to try from the top of the line opp! Thnx worth the price.
Awesome app!
This app should be a must have for your camera phone. This app needs a refresh but, still nice.
... LONG time!!
But now it doesn't work with the galaxy s5. The flash goes off almost a fill second before it shoots
Produces the best quality photos for a phone app
SUCKS!!!!! PLAIN ENGLISH!!!!
I stopped using another cameras since I installed this app. It takes amasing warm and nice photos. Just wondering why there is no B&W option for The Barbl, would be great if you add it.
Auto focus is working again...thank you for fixing!! This app has clean functionality and is easy to use. The moody images fit my personality. Love the following features: no frames, hi-res, alternate shutter button, no post shot editing. I have taken hundreds of pix and will continue to do so.
I love this app, and it used to take good photos, but recently its not working properly. Wont focus, and i get coloured lines through the image. Please fix so i can start using it again!
I used to have the free app but loved it so much that I purchased the full version. Somewhere down the line a developer thought it would be cool to remove the ISO option. How stupid! Now all my photos are super underexposed at night, and I'm forced to use flash. Oh, and it doesn't matter if you turn the camera sound on/off it still makes a sound when you take a shot. Complete waste of money.
I paid for this quite a while ago and still won't work...ever...at alk...zilch... it wouldn't let me give it the ZERO rating it deserves.
I used to love this app on my s2, but now on my s3 i keeps crashing. Keeps giving me an error and tells me i have to contact the companys email. Please fix this so this may become my favorit again :)
Thank you for fixing auto focus, I am back at taking great photos. Now, can we work on a bigger picture window? Pleeease!
Always head some issue with this app. Sometimes pictures wouldn't develop, other times I'd get a force close. I've changed around so many settings. Long story, but I've used it on a bunch of different phones. I now have a Nexus 4 and I Can get decent quality photos with this any more, They always muddled and look pixelated. I'm done trying. I'll just go back to using camera zoom because I'm tired of losing moments and memories.
Used to be a 5 star app but got a little behind in updates in comparison to other apps on the market. Add a few more camera options please! Would pay $1 or $2 extra for more options (hipstamatic price model)
Still not working... WTF, so mad about this...
...but constantly crashes after a couple shots. Always busy processing or can't set up camera. Galaxy S3 ICS 4.04. Update: Many days and no response to a simple question about the problem. Pretty much unusable.
I have had this app since it came out, and I used to love it. It really needs some major updates, like a zoom function, flash, larger viewfinder, and some improvements to its functionality. Takes beautiful pics, but too slow to use.
Not happy to have paid for the plus version and find i have no other choice of cameras or effects and it still keeps freezing my phone so i have to keep taking the battery out...the only difference i have with the paid version is a spirit level !!
I've been using this app for years. Seems the devs forgot about it some time last year. An update would be a welcome surprise.
I have taken hundreds of magic photos with this app. I have tried many others but none comes close.
I love your camera's developers captured it all in one application thanks do much.
Awesome camera app, would be nice if there were more cameras to choose from. Also, it's Quebec, not Quebuec. I sent you guys a email to let you know you 3 years ago ... It stills says Quebuec in the Fudgecan description ... Just sayin'
I've used this photo app since the day it was released. It's fun and actually takes impressive photos. Highly recommended.

Love it, used free for a while and just got paid version. Only thing is not really any extra features for paid version apart from spirit level, no ad. Would really like an option to turn off shutter sound and also to have colour/b&w option on all cameras and to be able to turn off film roll effect on the pin hole cam. Still great app tho. ????
