## Description

Your camera, re-drawn live as text. Ten styles of ASCII, braille, and halftone art — now with video upload and export. Point, shoot, make something weird.

ASCII Glitch Camera turns your camera into a live text-art machine. Every frame is redrawn in real time as characters — no filters pasted over a photo, but a true conversion where every glyph is chosen by the light that hit it.

TEN STYLES
Braille dot-matrix with 8-point detail per character, halftone dots, quadrant blocks, classic ASCII ramps, digits, line strokes, a 28-level fine-detail ramp, and a stark 1-bit mode. Swipe to switch live.

CAPTURE IT
Save full-resolution photos or record smooth video of the live feed, ready to share. Convert photos from your library too.

DIAL IT IN
Resolution, contrast, auto contrast, invert, dithering, pinch to zoom, front and back cameras. Freeze the frame when you catch something good.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Everything happens on your device. Nothing is collected, nothing is uploaded, no account, no ads.

Now go make something weird.
