Quick answer
A tiny camera that shoots vivid, cross-processed Lomo-style photos
Lomo Camera is a deliberately tiny, single-purpose Android camera. It opens straight into a live cross-processed Lomo-style preview and saves the same look to the final JPEG.
There are no filter menus, accounts, analytics, ads, gallery browser or network features. The app is designed to behave like a dedicated camera rather than a general-purpose photo editor.
Features: • live Lomo-style preview • full-resolution JPEG capture • tap to focus • pinch to zoom • flash off, automatic and forced on • front/rear camera switch • portrait and landscape controls • brief visual and haptic shutter feedback • photos saved to DCIM/Lomo
Privacy: Lomo Camera requests only the Android CAMERA permission. It has no INTERNET permission and does not request location access. Photos remain on the device and are saved using Android MediaStore.
The colour treatment is implemented with an independently generated RGB lookup table fitted from user-supplied before/after calibration photographs. No third-party camera application code or assets are included.
Lomo Camera is free software released under the GNU General Public License v3.0.
