## Description

Stack unlimited effects live on your camera, save your favorite combo as a one-tap preset, and reuse it instantly — every pixel rendered on-device, never uploaded.

Liquid Lens is a camera built around one idea: layer effects live, save the look, shoot it again in one tap.

Most camera apps make you pick a single filter. Liquid Lens lets you stack chromatic aberration, film grain, warped glass, and a hand-tuned gradient map all at once — and watch it composite in real time on your screen before you ever press the shutter. When you land on a combination you love, save it as a named preset and it's one tap away forever. No rebuilding your look shot by shot.

EVERYTHING RUNS ON YOUR DEVICE
Every effect is a custom Metal shader running locally through your GPU. Nothing is uploaded, nothing routes through a server — your photos and video never leave your phone. That also means zero lag between moving a slider and seeing the result on screen.

LAYER YOUR EFFECTS, LIVE
Combine any number of effects at once and see the composited result in the viewfinder in real time — not a preview render, not a "processing" screen. What you see is what gets captured, at full 48MP resolution.

SAVE YOUR LOOK AS A ONE-TAP PRESET
Dial in a stack of effects exactly how you want it, then save it and name it. Every slider value, every palette choice, and your warp level are stored together. Tap a saved Look and your entire stack snaps back instantly — no more re-dragging six sliders to match a look you had yesterday.

EDIT PHOTOS FROM YOUR LIBRARY, TOO
Effects aren't just for new shots. Pull any photo from your camera roll into the same live editor — same sliders, same presets, same Metal pipeline — and apply your layered look to photos you already have.
