Your phone's camera will keep getting better year after year... but this one will remain the same.
The 0.3MP Camera is a tribute to the button phone cameras from '00s, in those days, we had enough 0.3 megapixels and 640x480 resolution to capture the best moments. Now so many years later, those pictures seem so dreamy, so I've tried to recreate all aspects of making it.
Processing
The camera recreates all the artifacts inherent in the old CMOS sensors of mid-range phones, like bayer filter artifacts, dark and banding noises, blooming etc. You can pinch to zoom to make it more visible, the digital zoom will reduce the quality of the photo just like on an old phone.
Interface
The interface will be recognized by all who had an any Nokia with Series 40 or Symbian S60, all control is done with three buttons at the bottom. You can shoot on camera, record video or import your own photos for processing. Nothing extra.
P.S. This is the first (released 20 Jan 2023) and best app on the AppStore (over 58,000 five-star reviews worldwide) that emulates the mobile phone camera from the 2000s.
All others (even the big and popular apps) mimic this one.
Beware of fakes!

The app is really simple and effective, but I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because it doesn’t have a widget. It would be much more convenient to have one for quick access on the home or lock screen. Hopefully, this feature will be added soon! Update: It’s here, the widgets and as promised, amending my rating to 5 stars!
Timer Feature

Great app! But please add a Timer feature so we can take pictures with atleast 3-5-10 second timer! I hope in next update, you implement this. Also hoping for more cameras to inbuilt in this like Nokia e63 quality.Thanks
Feature Needed

I really enjoy 0.3, though I do believe it would be a lot more versatile if we were able to save our images and videos in their original resolution too as an option. Right now the quality can be quite limiting to use on social platforms with their compression systems. Having a higher resolution could resolve that. Otherwise, Great App!

Original 0.3MP Camera by Dmitry Shatilov!
"Scarily accurate to real early digital phone camera" — that’s how users describe the 0.3MP Camera app in App Store reviews.
The next big update needs a bit more time, so here's something for now: the used free shots counter has been reset to 0 for everyone who has ever downloaded the app! Enjoy taking free shots again
