Shoot through the filter
15 looks that render live in the viewfinder, not applied afterward. What you frame is what you capture, straight to a photo or a video file.
Four free filters, approximated in your browser
// LIVE.PREVIEW
The viewfinder is the filter
Most camera apps show you a clean frame and process it after the shutter. LensBug renders every effect onto the live feed, so you compose inside the look instead of guessing at it. Tap a filter and the world changes before you shoot.
Pinch to zoom, tap to focus, flip to the front camera. Everything still works with the effect running.

// FREQ · AUDIO-REACTIVE
It moves to the music
Play something loud. LensBug listens through the microphone, picks the beat out of the low end, and drives the image with it: colour swelling on the kick, contrast crushing, RGB channels splitting apart.
Five reactor modes: SAT, HUE, CRUSH, SPLIT and PARAM. The reaction is burned into the photo and the video, not just the preview.
FREQ HUD mid-beat
// VIDEO.CAPTURE
The effect is in the file
Hold the capture button to roll. The filter is rendered into every frame as it records, with audio, straight to a finished video. No export queue, no re-render, nothing to wait for when you stop.

// 2X EXPOSURE
Two frames, one image
Shoot once, then line the second frame up against a live ghost of the first. Blend them with screen, add or multiply, and adjust the mix afterwards in the editor.

// FILTER.INDEX
Fifteen ways to corrupt a photo
Every filter carries its own slider: scanline density, glitch chaos, palette, block size. No two people's TERMINAL looks the same.
