- 📦iY2K updated to version 3.1.0iOS• Edit straight from the Photos app. Open a photo, tap Share, then iY2K, and the editor opens right away.
• Light Bleed for selfies is rebuilt. We shot selfies side by side with a real iPhone 7 and matched that blown-out, overexposed glow on the face. Tap the button to step through Low, Mid and High.
• A new “Classic Selfie” button. If you liked how selfies looked in 2.0.0, turn it on.
• Keep the cameras you use most in Favorites. Touch and hold a camera or a composition guide for a preview and a menu.
• 58 composition guides now, with height and angle hints, a level, perspective lines, and Favorites, Recents and automatic suggestions.
• Fixed the live preview stuttering on iOS 18.

• The selfie update we promised is here. We re-tuned selfie color, brightness and skin texture for every old-phone look, side by side with selfies from the real phones. Dim rooms and backlit shots changed the most.
• All ten single-use cameras are now free. The app no longer has in-app purchases, and there is no frame limit.
• Added a timer (3 or 10 seconds).

• Turn the phone sideways and the photo is saved in landscape. Aspect ratios are now Default, 1:1, 3:4, 4:5 and 9:16.
• Fixed a rare white square appearing in a saved photo.

- 📦iY2K updated to version 2.0.4iOS• Selfie colors were re-tuned side by side with selfies from real classic iPhones. Skin that turned yellow or purple under indoor lights now looks natural, just like on an old iPhone.

Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.

About iY2K
Miss the character you used to get from older iPhone photos?
Bring a second old phone on trips just for the camera?
Tried an ‘old iPhone look’ app, only to be disappointed because it looked nothing like the real thing?
iY2K was built differently. We bought a range of real older iPhone models and directly compared thousands of shots. This is not a filter made by guessing at the mood. We studied the noise, bloom, color and sharpness that gave each camera its character, then carefully rebuilt those details.
We kept the character and eased off the drawbacks.
Harsh bloom and excessive noise are toned down, while the parts people love about older cameras stay. You can also bring in photos you have already taken and apply the old-phone look later.
There is no need to buy and carry another phone just for its camera. iY2K puts 238 looks — old phones, feature phones, compact digitals, film, cinematic, camcorders and single-use cameras — in one app.
What’s inside
· 238 looks — old phones, compact digitals, cinematic, film, camcorders, single-use cameras and feature phones
· Fifty-eight composition guides — People, Landscape, Café and Top-Down. Line up with the outline on screen, get live directions on where to move the phone, and lay an example photo over the viewfinder
· Light Bleed for selfies — the soft, blown-out glow old iPhone selfies had, in four strengths from Very Low to High, on only when you want it
· Share a photo from the Photos app to iY2K to edit it right away
· Photos, video and Live Photos
· 40 single-use cameras — colour, black-and-white and waterproof, plus instant-film looks
· 11 cinematic cameras — photos developed like motion-picture film (photo only)
· 20 camcorders — the look of videotape, digital tape and 8mm film, with REC and the date on screen
· 40 feature phones — the cameras of 2000s flip and slider phones
· See the look live in the viewfinder before you shoot
· Apply it to photos and videos already in your library, several photos at once
· Sensitivity and strength controls for every look
· 0.5×, 1× and 2× lenses, plus the front camera
· A 3-second and a 10-second timer
· Grid, five aspect ratios and optional frames
· An album that gathers what you shot with iY2K, day by day
There are no in-app purchases. All 238 looks, the 40 single-use cameras included, come with the price of the app, and there is no subscription. Shoot the single-use cameras as much as you like — there is no frame limit. An instant frame is saved as a square photograph inside a white instant-print border.
Shooting and editing are processed on your device, with no account or in-app ads. Only with your tracking permission, the Meta SDK sends device identifiers and app activation events to measure advertising performance. Declining does not affect any feature. Photos and capture locations are not sent to Meta. See our privacy policy for details.

iY2K downloads
Worldwide, per day, and installs to date. The band is open; the exact number is free with an account.
How this is calculated
Apple publishes no download counts. App Store downloads come from chart positions and daily rating growth per country, calibrated on Google Play install counts; lifetime installs from ratings worldwide × installs per rating. Confidence is the chance the real number is within half to double ours.

Review momentum

faster than 76% of Photo & Video apps
Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.

About iY2K
Miss the character you used to get from older iPhone photos?
Bring a second old phone on trips just for the camera?
Tried an ‘old iPhone look’ app, only to be disappointed because it looked nothing like the real thing?
iY2K was built differently. We bought a range of real older iPhone models and directly compared thousands of shots. This is not a filter made by guessing at the mood. We studied the noise, bloom, color and sharpness that gave each camera its character, then carefully rebuilt those details.
We kept the character and eased off the drawbacks.
Harsh bloom and excessive noise are toned down, while the parts people love about older cameras stay. You can also bring in photos you have already taken and apply the old-phone look later.
There is no need to buy and carry another phone just for its camera. iY2K puts 238 looks — old phones, feature phones, compact digitals, film, cinematic, camcorders and single-use cameras — in one app.
What’s inside
· 238 looks — old phones, compact digitals, cinematic, film, camcorders, single-use cameras and feature phones
· Fifty-eight composition guides — People, Landscape, Café and Top-Down. Line up with the outline on screen, get live directions on where to move the phone, and lay an example photo over the viewfinder
· Light Bleed for selfies — the soft, blown-out glow old iPhone selfies had, in four strengths from Very Low to High, on only when you want it
· Share a photo from the Photos app to iY2K to edit it right away
· Photos, video and Live Photos
· 40 single-use cameras — colour, black-and-white and waterproof, plus instant-film looks
· 11 cinematic cameras — photos developed like motion-picture film (photo only)
· 20 camcorders — the look of videotape, digital tape and 8mm film, with REC and the date on screen
· 40 feature phones — the cameras of 2000s flip and slider phones
· See the look live in the viewfinder before you shoot
· Apply it to photos and videos already in your library, several photos at once
· Sensitivity and strength controls for every look
· 0.5×, 1× and 2× lenses, plus the front camera
· A 3-second and a 10-second timer
· Grid, five aspect ratios and optional frames
· An album that gathers what you shot with iY2K, day by day
There are no in-app purchases. All 238 looks, the 40 single-use cameras included, come with the price of the app, and there is no subscription. Shoot the single-use cameras as much as you like — there is no frame limit. An instant frame is saved as a square photograph inside a white instant-print border.
Shooting and editing are processed on your device, with no account or in-app ads. Only with your tracking permission, the Meta SDK sends device identifiers and app activation events to measure advertising performance. Declining does not affect any feature. Photos and capture locations are not sent to Meta. See our privacy policy for details.
