Perla turns your iPhone into a film camera.
Pick a look before you shoot, not after. Perla previews every film stock live in the viewfinder, so what you frame is what you get — no editing afterwards, no filters stacked on a finished photo.
A LIBRARY OF LOOKS
33 emulated stocks covering warm portrait films, saturated landscape films, black & white, cinematic and cross-processed looks. Each one is described in plain language so you can pick the right mood at a glance, and search and filters help you find it fast.
FULL MANUAL CONTROL
Take command of ISO, shutter speed, white balance and focus, or leave any of them on auto. Exposure compensation is always at hand, and one tap resets everything.
YOUR OWN RECIPES
Build a look from scratch: grain, colour chrome, white balance shift, highlight and shadow tone, colour, sharpness, noise reduction, clarity, vignette and fade. Save it, name it, and apply it again with a single tap.
FRAME WITH CONFIDENCE
A framing guide shows exactly what lands in the final file, with a rule-of-thirds grid for composition. It adapts to 4:3 for photos and 16:9 for video.
EVERY LENS
Perla reads the lenses on your iPhone and builds the zoom bar to match — ultra-wide, wide and telephoto, with pinch to zoom in between.
NATIVE QUALITY
Photos save as HEIC and video as H.264, the same formats the built-in camera uses. Shots go straight to your Photos library at full quality, with the look baked in, or out through the share sheet.
No account. No subscription pop-ups. Just a camera.
