36 polaroid-inspired filters

The filters have been completely rebuilt to better capture the Polaroid effect. While there is nothing like the original picture - The Polamatic team has studied thousands of actual Polaroid prints, and the all-new filters have softer edges, color adjustments, and some even have emulsion streaks that reflect the nuances of Polaroid film. There are a lot of filter apps out there, but none capture the unique beauty and unpredictability of Polaroid film like the Polamatic app now can.

36 authentic polaroid classic border formats

The iconic Polaroid Classic Border formats are made from high resolution scans of actual Polaroid pictures. Whether users want a crisp white border, or crave the look of a Polaroid picture that is a bit more aged - users can check out a few additional authentic Polaroid Classic Border formats for a wider variety of choices. In addition, the Polamatic app now has a handful of Polaroid Classic Border formats with colorful borders.

New text editing features and fonts

The new text editing features provide unique customization and tools - and allows users the freedom to add multiple layers of text - anywhere on your photo. People love to handwrite on a Polaroid picture, and the array of handwritten fonts look and feel like the real thing.
