Cheese Camera App Development

I built Cheese, an indie mobile camera app centered around slow, intentional photography. In a world of endless photo dumps, I wanted something more deliberate—where every click matters. The app mimics a film-like experience with limited “reels” and removes distractions like retakes, edits, or deletes. What you capture is what you keep

Key features:

• Distraction-free camera (flip, flash, timer only)

• Reel-based system to encourage intentional shooting

• No delete, retake, or edit—every capture is permanent

• Tactile UI with depth, shadows, and physical feedback

• High-fidelity haptics via Haptics Labs

• Custom UI built using Rive

• Print flow to turn digital photos into physical deliveries

The goal wasn’t just another camera app, but a feeling—slower, calmer, more present. Every interaction is designed to make users pause and choose what’s worth keeping.
