iPhone App Review: ScratchCam – Easy Random Photo Damage

ScratchCam is an easy to use app that adds cool, distressed film and photo print effects to your pics. The app features both color and black & white effects, oversaturation and color shift combinations, and several film scratch effects. It’s at its best when it’s working all three.

Noir lets you convert your images into luscious, classic, cinematic black & white and then adjust the vignette to “light” the image or draw attention to one element of the photo. It’s a fairly simple app that can be used to create classic-looking monochromes. It’s easy to use with few controls. That’s both a strength and weakness of the app.
