VSCO to launch new iPhone camera app 'Capture' with film-style presets
Visual Supply Co. (VSCO) is launching a new iPhone camera app called Capture, designed as a third-party alternative to Apple's native camera. According to a report by 9To5Mac, Capture focuses on enhancing the photography experience by allowing users to apply film-style presets before taking a shot—eliminating the need for post-processing.
The launch comes shortly after Adobe debuted its own camera app, Project Indigo, which brings computational photography and manual controls to iPhones, along with Lightroom integration for editing.
VSCO Capture app: Details
Citing Bloomberg's Chris Welch, the report notes that Capture aims to shift focus from editing to the moment of image capture. Unlike VSCO's primary app, which centres on editing photos after they're taken, Capture allows users to select their desired film-like aesthetic beforehand.
At launch, the app will offer 50 of VSCO's most popular presets for instant use. Users can toggle between automatic and manual modes, with options to adjust shutter speed, exposure compensation, and visual effects like bloom and halation.
'Photographers increasingly are moving away from using overly complicated editing software and are using apps that make it easier to get that right moment with a desired aesthetic right at the point of capture,' said VSCO CEO Eric Wittman in an interview with Welch.
Capture will be free to use with a VSCO account. While it will not include AI-powered tools at launch, such features may appear later in VSCO's flagship app.
The Capture app will start rolling out in select markets including Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand by the end of this week. A wider global rollout is planned for later this summer.

US & EU trade pacts to be concluded soon: Nirmala Sitharaman
The negotiations for a bilateral trade deal with the United States and a free trade agreement with the European Union (EU) are progressing "really intensely" and should be concluded soon, finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman said Tuesday. Countering a US-led narrative that India is a "tariff king," she said the government has brought down customs duty slabs to eight "including the zero rate" and that effective rates are much lower than the tariff rate, or the maximum possible tax on imports. India has already signed free trade agreements with the United Arab Emirates, Australia, and the four-nation EFTA (European Free Trade Association) bloc, while negotiations with the UK have been completed, Sitharaman said at a trade conclave organised by the Exim Bank here. The emphasis now is on concluding more free trade agreements, she added. India has deepened its participation in global value chains. Apple's iPhone contract manufacturers have crossed the 20% domestic value addition (DVA) threshold across variants, the minister said. Citing the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) World Investment Report 2025, she said India's position has improved though the global FDI flows dropped 11%. Export Focus Indian exports grew at an annual rate of 6.3% between 2010 and 2023 when global exports grew at 4%, and the country's share in global exports touched 3% in 2023 from 2.2% in 2010, as per the UNCTAD report. "Exporters are swimming against tides and succeeding," Sitharaman said. The country's total exports reached an all-time high of $825 billion in FY25, recording a 6% growth from previous year, despite global uncertainties, she noted. "In the last few years, global growth and trade have suffered," she said. "There was Russia-Ukraine war, then it was Israel-Gaza. Every year, we have had one or the other serious challenge to do with trade." India aims to achieve the export target of $2 trillion by 2030. Speaking at the conclave, financial services secretary M Nagaraju said India continues to be a beacon of hope and growth amidst all the global headwinds.
