The thing itself, seen every time.
per see borrows from per se — the thing in itself — and from seeing, every time. Use today’s iPhone to feel the color, grain and detail of older iPhone cameras again, and bring the looks of different years back into your everyday.
Every era has its own texture
Explore simulated looks from past iPhones — from pixels and color to noise and sharpening — and find the one you like.
Portrait touch-ups stay on your device
Turn on brightening, smoothing and face slimming when you want them. Photo processing and facial landmark detection happen entirely on the device.
Your photos are yours
Camera and photo access are requested only when needed. No app account, no ads, no third-party analytics SDKs, and your photos are never uploaded.
per see simulates imaging styles. A photo is not evidence that it was taken with the selected historical model, and the app cannot fully reproduce that model’s optics or computational photography. The front camera is simulated from each model’s base specifications with color modeled on the rear camera, and has not yet been calibrated against independent front-camera samples.
