About Flashback
Flashback by Epilogue helps you travel back in time to the late ‘90s and look at the world through an 8-bit pixelated lens. Enjoy the emulated effects of the original camera, with photos and videos saved directly to your phone’s gallery. For a full hardware experience, attach the GB Operator with a USB-C cable and insert the physical Game Boy Camera, getting live feed through the app.
Flashback is what happens when modern hardware goes retro.

Adorable little camera app. Does its job very well. It does infact save the pictures you take.
cool app, does what it says
Pretty neat so far. Love the wide range of color palettes to choose from. Would be even cooler if we could use the Ultra Wide lens on the S25. Maybe some other aspect ratios too, like 3:2?
