Updated the app to be compatible with iOS 16
5.0.1
2015-07-09
This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.
Well that took a while… let's see here, what’s not new?
-Polaroid Film: this is our most exciting feature of this update. You are no longer bound to the classic Type 600 film. Choose from 10 different film types: Type 600, Type 100, Type 80, SX-70, Image Spectra, 4x5 Film, 8x10 Film, Roll Film, 300 Film, and 500 Film
-New film types include a unique set of borders and filters to capture the look of the film. Over 120 filters in this update.
-“No Film” option allows you to apply our Polaroid filters to your photo without adding a border
-Batch Importing: import multiple photos at once into your Polamatic library
-Over 20 new fonts
-A redesigned and improved app experience
-Faster image processing
-Oh and an awesome new icon
As always we will never ask you to rate the app with annoying popups but please remember your reviews are very important to us. If you have a moment please leave us a review and let us know how you feel about the update!
P.S. This past May marked the 3-year mark since the initial release of Polamatic. We have really enjoyed working on the app and take pride in bringing you the best possible Polaroid experience. When we set out to create this latest version, we knew we wanted to approach the app from the most authentic point possible. We thought, wouldn't it be great if we could bring back all the classic film types from Polaroid? This is exactly what we did with this new update and are very pleased with the result - we hope you are too! Thank you to everyone who download the app and supported us from day one.

Hi Everyone! Just fixing a few bugs that have been affecting iOS 8 users.
Also we realized that it's really annoying to prompt you for a review while you're enjoying the app. So from now on no more pop ups asking you to rate the app. Although we removed this please do not forget how important reviews are to us. If you have a moment let us know how you feel about the app.
Please keep sending us any bug reports or issues you find in the app, we are working to resolve them as we see them. If you find anything that "bugs" you please send us an email:
[email protected]
Thanks for the support!

Wow... that was tricky. There have been a number of users experiencing an issue when trying tor restore in app purchases. This was a tough issue to catch as it only happens on the live version of the app. During testing we could not replicate this bug. So fingers crossed we fixed it this time. If any of you are still experiencing the gray screen on app launch we are extremely sorry and please email us at

4.0.1
2014-02-01
Hello Everyone!
We're so happy you’re enjoying the app! Keep sharing your #polamatic posts with us - they’re bursting with creativity. We're really sorry that some of you are experiencing issues, and this update:
- Fixed issue on the iPhone 4 and 4S that caused app to crash before saving. This was limiting for some of you and hopefully now this bug is a thing of the past.
- Fixed the crashing issue when selecting a font. Thank you B-Dub @nomtasticapps for pointing this out to us.
- Fixed the issue that cause the image to rotate while the phone was rotated when adding a filter.
- Increased gallery thumbnail image resolution. This was more of a UI improvement than a bug fix, as we noticed the thumbnails were a bit blurry. The thumbnails are much sharper now!
- We removed the Polamatic website link when sharing your Polaroid to Twitter. We know this annoyed some of you and we apologize for stealing your character spaces.
- You can now import from any album in your photo library. In the previous update, you were limited to your camera roll only. We heard your feedback and we took care of it.
Made in San Francisco with love.

Without further adieu... it's here! We made our largest update to Polamatic yet - where we literally started with a blank border and re-built from there. We want to take a moment to thank you for supporting us during the time we took to get this update right.
We wanted to make Polamatic the MOST powerful and authentic app for creating a Polaroid. We believe we’ve made that happen and we hope you enjoy the update.
Enjoy new Polaroid Borders, all new Filters, and brand new text features.
3.0.1
2012-12-06
Hello Everyone. There is nothing new in this version but we have improved the app by fixing a few bugs.
- Fixed issue with camera shutter remaining closed when reopening the camera
- Fixed issue with spinning activity indicator not appearing when saving Polaroid
NOTE: A few users have contacted us asking why they’re not able to save their Polaroid images to the photo library. This is not an issue with the app, it has to do with your privacy settings.
When you initially launch the app please make sure to ALLOW Polamatic access to your photo library or you will not be able to save to your Photo Library.
If you did not allow this permission then go to your iPhone Settings > Privacy > Photos > Polamatic. Make sure Polamatic is switched ON.
Thanks for the support!
