A little help.
Then back to the light.

Let the light in

Bellows requires iPhone with iOS 27.0 or later. Fold shutter and outer display preview require iPhone Duo with iOS 27.1 or later. Allow Camera for Bellows in iOS Settings. If another app is using the camera, finish that session and return to Bellows.

Watch a print appear

Press the shutter and watch the paper slide out. A gentle shake or a tap on the print speeds up the reveal. It also develops automatically. Bellows creates digital prints; no physical printer or paper is needed.

Open the camera

Unfold for a larger workspace. Use the outer preview to help your subject compose. To use the optional fold shutter, arm it, open beyond 130°, then fold below 85°. Reopen to rearm.

Keep your photographs

Your light table holds prints and originals on your iPhone. Save to Photos is optional. Prints stay in your light table. In version 1.0 build 4 and later, open a print to favorite, save, share, or permanently delete it after confirmation. Earlier builds have no Delete button. Copies saved to Photos or shared elsewhere remain there. Save a separate copy of photographs you want to keep before uninstalling Bellows.

Sound and feel

Camera settings includes controls for mechanical sound, haptics, grain, and date imprint. Sounds respect Silent Mode. Reduce Motion uses a quieter print transition.

One purchase

Bellows is a one-time paid download with no subscription or in-app purchases. Apple manages purchases, redownloads, and refund requests.
