7 Best Polaroid Frame Apps for Android

Polaroid instant print cameras are remembered for unusual photos, which are made in a small frame and contains a free space at the bottom for inscription. Unfortunately, not everyone now has the ability to take these pictures themselves, but you can add just one effect using a special application to get an image in a similar design.

SNOW

SNOW logoSnow is an application with a huge number of different functions. Within the scope of this article we are talking about the polaroid frame effect, so let’s skip the unnecessary details and get right to the point. To work with the application it’s better to use the shots taken on the camera of the phone.

Go to the gallery, choose a photo, click “edit” – in the menu we need an icon located at the very edge of the right (smiley face). As soon as you press it, a lot of different stickers, frames, effects, etc. will open.

There is a lot of tastelessnesses here, but if you dig, you can find something very worthwhile. For example, the polaroid frames are located in the “frame” section.

NOMO

NOMO logoNOMO is a mobile version of the very popular Instax Mini instant printing camera. You can take a picture directly in the application or select a picture from the gallery. One way or another, you will have to wait 90 seconds (or shake the phone), after which you will get the same polaroid card in digital format.

The thing is that polaroid develops your eyes, so you need to wait 90 seconds to see the finished photo.

NOMO has two advantages:

  1. A natural-looking picture, without date and terrible glare;
  2. The possibility of selecting the camera, there are polaroids that develop in the application for 90 seconds.

The application itself is very simple – it is an emulator of film cameras. The application has several cameras and their number is constantly updated.

An application can basically edit your old photos, but I don’t recommend it, because taking pictures through the application gives you a slightly different result. Each camera has its own exposure, white balance, etc., and it’s much more interesting to shoot using the application.

I recommend each of you try this app. It’s free and you will initially be able to use two cameras, Polaroid and Toy K.

InstaMini

InstaMini logoInstaMini is a unique camera application, imitating the original Polaroid. Here you can’t upload photos and everything is like with a real polaroid camera – until you shake the phone, the photo will not appear. Which photo you end up with depends on the light and composition. So it’s necessary to remember the basics of photography.

It doesn’t just use filters when shooting, even the interface copies the interaction with the real camera completely. It sounds strange, but the first time you start up, you realize how cool this is.

The screen displays all the elements required for the shot – a small lens, a flash button, and the number of pics remaining in the film.

The resulting images are original and unique. InstaMini has an excellent filter, which randomly superimposes effects, as in Polaroid itself.

When the button is pressed, the original sound is produced and a picture is printed on the screen. The user then needs to develop it by shaking the device for a few seconds. Of course, the application has a built-in gallery for viewing photos.

The main advantages

  • Gives unforgettable emotions and feelings
  • Interface in the style of the original camera
  • Excellent image quality
  • A few frames to choose from
