Huji Cam
An app that makes photos look like a 1998 disposable camera.
What Huji Cam does
Huji Cam is a simple camera app for iPhone and Android that gives photos the look of a 1998 disposable camera: warm color, grain and random light leaks. There's no editing to learn. You shoot through a small viewfinder and the look is applied for you.
Huji Cam has been around since 2017, and it's still about as simple as it gets. You look through a tiny viewfinder, take the shot, and get a photo with faded color, grain and the odd light leak, a bit like picking up prints from the drugstore.
There's no editor to speak of, which is the charm. Each photo comes out a little different, so it feels less controlled than a filter. You can make the viewfinder bigger in landscape mode, and a touch mode is tucked away in the settings.
It's on iPhone and Android. Updates have been slow on iPhone: the last one there was in December 2024. If you want more control over the look, Dazz Cam or 1998 Cam give you more cameras and settings.
