Instant brings back the magic of the iconic Polaroid instant camera to your iPhone. At the touch of a finger, users can shoot a new picture using the camera on the iPhone or select an existing one from their photo album, apply an authentic Polaroid-like filter, add Polaroid class border and write text on it, thus, compose a classic Polaroid instant photo.
Instant app mimics the workflow of a real classic Polaroid instant camera, with realistic visual and sound effects. Upon selecting or shooting a photo, an "undeveloped" dark Polaroid film slides out from the top of the screen. Slowly the film is developed and the final picture unveils.
The app comes with 30 unique vintage style photo filters, with 10 of them closely mimicking the effects of various classic Polaroid films. Each filter is adjustable in strength, vignette and emulsion artifacts, adding even more realistic Polaroid look. Users may also add text to their Polaroid photo, selecting from 10 handwriting style fonts. Text can be freely resized, rotated and moved around by finger gestures. Users can also adjust the effect of the Polaroid border, such as choosing from 26 different colors, adding crosshatch, stain, wrinkle and fingerprints on to the border.
The Polaroid photos can be saved to your photo library and easily shared via Email, Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, Tumblr, Instagram (requires Instagram app pre-installed) and Sina Weibo.

* Creative and fun user interface produces realistic experience of Polaroid instant photography

Not worth the $

Very disappointed in this app... the filters do not produce a polaroid quality whatsoever! These filters can be found on other, *free* filter apps that aren't "polaroid" themed. Don't waste your money!
HD quality is missing!

Hello dear, instant! I loved their models the effect of classic Polaroid borders with different themes and colors. And but I did not like it because the photos are too blurry inside the polaroid edges because of the lack of quality, please urgently need high resolution HD images, fix it as soon as possible! and you also need to change a new design of the application. ¡fix it! Thank you.
Totally FUNlaroid???

Love this App so much but there’s some moments that it’s acting a little bipolar, just slow and keep buffering- would be happy if they can fix this issues- otherwise it’s a great fun app!— just so you know, I’ve Polaroid stepone 2 camera too and I don’t see the difference between the real and fake.Giving it 4 stars?
Great, but...

What is shown in the viewfinder is only the center portion of the resulting image. This makes composition an act of guesswork. Please address this in a future update. Thanks.
Love it !

just a few flaws in an otherwise fantastic app: 1. I had hoped for a better audio recording of the familiar sound of the camera dispensing exposed film. 2. app requires you to locate previous position in your camera roll (if you have thousands, this can get tedious) if you cancel your selection to select another pic*. 3. preview pic* of your camera roll is too small (likely a limitation of iOS). 4. saving pics to camera roll should allow for a default setting of automatic save without requiring user input. 5. saving pics to camera roll is way too slow! 6. optional export to SMS! picky observations, but I love the app. just wish it printed out a Polaroid picture from my iPhone! ps: allow for easy printing from within the app like hipstamatic.
Definitely Worth the $2!
