San Francisco, CA, January 18, 2014 – In a world of digital smartphone photography, Polaroid is re-launching its popular Polamatic iOS app with a complete redesign to more closely capture the Polaroid effect- the excitement of waiting for a Polaroid picture to develop. The Polamatic 4.0 App by Polaroid, one of the most popular Polaroid apps, will bring that instant nostalgia back to life on any Apple device.
Offered by Appadana Development, an authorized Polaroid licensee, the Polamatic app is designed to bring back the magic of Polaroid photography. Appadana Development’s Dana Shakiba notes, „Today, we’re excited to share Polamatic 4.0 – our largest update yet. It is inspired by our growing Polamatic community and their love for Polaroid – we went beyond just an iOS 7 redesign and fully rebuilt the app to better capture the essence of Polaroid and bring users an even more authentic digital experience.“
So what’s new?
36 Polaroid-Inspired Filters The filters have been completely rebuilt to better capture the Polaroid effect. While there is nothing like the original picture – The Polamatic team has studied thousands of actual Polaroid prints, and the all-new filters have softer edges, color adjustments, and some even have emulsion streaks that reflect the nuances of Polaroid film. There are a lot of filter apps out there, but none capture the unique beauty and unpredictability of Polaroid film like the Polamatic app now can.
36 Authentic Polaroid Classic Border formats The iconic Polaroid Classic Border formats are made from high resolution scans of actual Polaroid pictures. Whether users want a crisp white border, or crave the look of a Polaroid picture that is a bit more aged – users can check out a few additional authentic Polaroid Classic Border formats for a wider variety of choices. In addition, the Polamatic app now has a handful of Polaroid Classic Border formats with colorful borders.
New Text Editing Features and Fonts The new text editing features provide unique customization and tools – and allows users the freedom to add multiple layers of text – anywhere on your photo. People love to handwrite on a Polaroid picture, and the array of handwritten fonts look and feel like the real thing.
The new Polamatic experience brings back the nostalgia of Polaroid photography — and like the original Polaroid film — users will be able to watch their photo develop before their very eyes. To learn more about Polamatic please visit http://www.polamatic.com.
