ZiNEY

Make a photo look printed, in one tap. Halftone and line screens, dither, grain and two-colour gradient maps, with the recipe in plain sight so you can make it yours.

Give your photos the texture of print.

ZiNEY turns a photo into something that looks pulled off a press: halftone dots, line screens, ordered dither, film grain and two-colour gradient maps. Tap a preset and it's done. Then use three sliders to make it yours.

8 LOOKS • Circle — concentric halftone. The poster look • Halftone — four-plate CMYK colour halftone • Threshold — two tones plus grain. Photocopier and zine texture • Duotone — no screen, just grain and two colours. For portraits and product shots • Bitmap — 8-bit ordered dither • Dot — newspaper halftone • Line — engraving-style scan lines • Mosaic — pixels plus halftone, for fun

15 PALETTES, PLUS INVERT Indigo Rose, Ink, Acid, Magenta, Tangerine, Cobalt, Brick, Wine, Forest, Sepia, Neon, Flamingo, Sunburst, Mint and Full Color. From classic navy-and-pink to brick red, forest green, sepia, black under fluorescents and pink-on-yellow. Tap Invert to swap the two inks of every palette.

THE RECIPE IS VISIBLE Every effect sits in a stack you can reorder, switch off or adjust. "Tone → Halftone → Grain → Gradient Map" reads exactly like what it is, so you can copy it, learn it and push it further.

TUNED TO EACH PHOTO ZiNEY analyses brightness and contrast and adds an AUTO tone step so presets land well on the first tap. Threshold levels come from the photo too.
