Zerocam is a camera app for minimalists

A one button camera control that eliminates all complexity.

This camera app has a single main button.

Open the app and capture the moment without fumbling with any settings.

The app's premise is to eliminate artificial post-processing, encouraging users to embrace the beauty of natural photography.

As the developer of Zerocam puts it, "We shoot in RAW and process your photos to remove all artificial effects, delivering soft, pleasant-to-the-eye images."

As our technologies gain increasingly powerful functions and features, we find ourselves capable of doing more.

Ironically, this can sometimes lead to doing less of the main activity due to over-optimization and excessive customization.

I personally haven't connected with using this camera app over the default one, though it did make me think that perhaps we don't need to keep adding new features to our apps and technologies.

You can try Zerocam for free, though the app has a daily limit of 5 photos. You then have the option to upgrade to a paid plan to unlock unlimited photos.
