## Retrospecs Description
A retro computing / pixel art camera app.

Retrospecs lets you convert images and video clips so they appear as they would on a wide variety of home computers and consoles from the 70's, 80's and 90's.

Simply take a picture (or select one from your photo library) and you can display it as it would appear on over forty systems including the Commodore 64, IBM PC (DOS, CGA, EGA and VGA), Sinclair ZX Spectrum, Commodore Amiga, Atari ST, Sega Mega Drive, Nintendo Game Boy and even the original 1984 model Apple Macintosh. If that's not enough you can also create your own custom modes based around four different graphics engines and a wide variety of color palettes and character fonts. (The free version only contains a limited number of systems/dither modes and the custom editors, video clip processing and animation options aren't available.)

## Retrospecs Reviews in United States

### ***** "🔥!EPOD🔥"
Super dope and does everything I needed to do answer
-- ROBOTIC NATIVES, 2024-12-31

### ***** "Digggg"
Brings back my beloved C=64 days!
-- Amul-6789, 2024-12-20

### ****- "Very close"
This is very close to the app 8bit photo lab on android devices.
My problem is that I do not have the same amount of control as that app. Specifically control over the resolution.

The resolution of 8bit photo lab goes up to 2000x2000+ pixels with every form of digital styling.

Making the range for the objects I create for my collages vast.

This is something I NEED so I can finally stop using the cheap tablet for ONE specific reason 

I hope the developers can see this and update the app to have this value scale.
-- auaoeprbcosbehe, 2024-11-04

### ***** "It actually works as described."
Offers paid options as well as cool, free pixelating. Fans of 16 and 32-bit will enjoy this. Refreshing considering there’s lots of fake apps out there.
-- SvkkMeDry69, 2024-10-27

### ***** "Perfection!"
Worth buying the full version. (And what got me to rate it 5 stars was a certain custom app icon, very appreciated.)
-- Enzy/エンゼィ, 2024-09-22

### ***** "Two years"
I’ve been using this for two years and it’s just the best you’ll find. Thank you so much for making this app.
-- HiCGP, 2024-05-15

### ***** "Amazing concept and execution"
Every filter is very authentic to the original system. The creator definitely did their homework. Great execution and style. Very easy to use. I can't ask for anything more! Get this now!
-- Nuff64, 2024-04-30

### ***** "Makes photos better"
4k? No way.
-- Yoga model, 2024-04-26

### ***** "Amazing App"
Could you please update it so that transparent parts of PNGs don’t get blacked out.
-- AppStoreReviews_by_JJ, 2024-04-07

### ***** "Amazing App"
Hands down one of my favorite apps to create with. I highly recommend spending some time with the free version before buying it to see if it’s worth your while. For me it TOTALLY is. Love the ability to animate your photos and save them as videos or GIFs. So many different styles and options to make your pics come alive.
