An online tool with such filters exists here: http://patorjk.com/old-school-gaming-filters/ http://patorjk.com/old-school-gaming-filters/ Includes Gameboy camera, as well as a few other retro filters.

  Oh man, patorjk.com has been around forever. He once published some code that I submitted. He actually lived in the same town in Maryland as my brother. I still use his ASCII art text generator tool on occasion.

    I do too! :D I discovered his site back in my teens, when I was really into ASCII art.

  Sounds like Android. Anything interesting has weird compatibility quirks.

    Especially Samsung-Android. Hardware that runs AOSP and closer variants are much more interesting, way less undocumented kernel hackery.

      While I love a good Samsung/TouchWiz (showing how long it has been since I've used Samsung Galaxy) bashing, I don't think this one is on Samsung. One a OnePlus Nord N30, > This app isn't available for your device because it was made for an older version of Android. Your best bet is you want long term distribution is probably to try to get included in fdroid default repositories. Yes, this takes open source your app but it is probably good if you don't want to jump through Google's hoops. Android is better than ever and as of Android 12, neostore (fdroid frontend) can finally update apps on its own.
