It
remembers.
32 frames of memory give your clip what a filter cannot: clones, time-warp, colour split in time. Your footage gets a past.
You
play it.
Move one finger on an XY pad and the effect moves with you. Roll the die for a new variation. Let the mic hear the tempo and the look pulses on the beat.
Nothing leaves
your phone.
Your footage stays yours. No cloud, no account, no tracking.
Free
Every effect, the pad, import. Start shooting now: takes up to 8 s, small watermark.

The effects
What
it does.
HEXTAZE turns your iPhone camera into an effects instrument. The effect is rendered live while you shoot, so the clip you record is ready to post.
-
Eleven effects, played live
GHOST, WARP, AURA, TRIO, CRUSH, TRIAD, CCD, LOOP, SMEAR, MESH and DROP: clones, time-warp, slit-scan, halos, mirrors, bit-crush, RGB split, 2007 digicam, video feedback, time smear, a 3D mesh and a living backdrop. 56 presets, 6 stacks, and a colour finish on every look.
-
An XY pad, not a slider
Touch a point, get that look; let go and it springs back. Lock it, latch a take so the whole screen becomes the pad, or roll the die for a new variation of any look.
-
Locked to the beat
Press play and the pad moves on the tempo, from 4 bars down to 1/16, dotted and triplet. Tap the tempo, let the microphone find it in the room, or take it from your own track. The movement stays on the beat.
-
Loops cut on the bar
Make clips that replay cleanly. Import a song (MP3, M4A, WAV, AIFF). HEXTAZE finds its beats and bars on the phone, counts you in, records exactly 2, 4, 8 or 16 bars and cuts the sound to the sample, with no click at the join. How to make a seamless loop.
-
It knows who is in frame
On-device person detection puts the effect on you alone, or on everything but you. Chain up to three effects, each on its own zone, and build a look nobody else has.
-
What you play is what you record
Post what you played. The rendered picture itself, never a screen recording: no buttons in the clip. Video or photo, front or back camera, 1× or 0.5×. Import a video and perform the effects over it. Share with sound, share a silent copy, or save to Photos.
-
Private by design
Shoot with a clear head: no account, no sign-in, no ads, no tracking, no network code. Camera, microphone and music are processed on your iPhone. Shared looks are links built on the phone; nothing is uploaded.
-
Free to start, one unlock
Every effect, preset, stack and tool is free to try, with takes up to 8 seconds and a small HEXTAZE mark. One in-app purchase, not a subscription, unlocks unlimited takes, no mark on new takes, every fader and longer loops. iPhone XS, XR or later, iOS 17 or later.
