Does CAM135 have a camera with a timestamp?

Yes, a film-style one. Photos show the date in the corner inside the app, in your choice of face and layout. It is the date only, taken from the phone's clock.

Does the timestamp include the time?

Not on photos. The Info sheet in the app shows the time each photo was shot, but that is not printed on the picture. On video, the VHS look prints a clock above the date.

Is it a GPS timestamp, or good enough for proof?

No to both. CAM135 records no location, and the stamp comes from your phone's clock, which anyone with the phone can change. For work records or evidence, use a tool built for verified time and keep the original file.

Can it add a timestamp to photos I already have?

No. It stamps what you shoot in the app.

Is the timestamp part of the saved photo?

On a photo, it shows in the app's Camera Roll and viewer. The file you save or share is the clean photo. A DATE BACK frame from the Camera Roll prints the date into a new copy. On video, the date is in the file.

Is the timestamp free?

Yes. The stamp is never locked, on the free tier or after you buy. What $19.99 once unlocks is the full shelf of films and cameras, including the seven camcorders and the VHS look that stamp video.

Camera app with timestamp · what it stamps

A camera app with a timestamp, and what that timestamp is.

This is a camera app with a timestamp made to look like film: the date over your photo in the app, as on a 90s camera, and printed into video.

On photos it is the date only, taken from your phone's clock. It is not GPS, not verified, and not proof of when a picture was taken. On a photo the stamp shows in the app, not in the saved file. On video it is in the file, and the VHS look adds a clock. If you need a stamp for work or evidence, read the second section first.

02Work and evidence

If you need a timestamp for work or proof

This app is not it. Here is why, and what to do.

The stamp is your phone's date, and anyone with the phone can change the phone's clock. Text drawn on a picture is easy to change too. CAM135 adds no location and does not check the time against anything. So it cannot show when a picture was really taken.

Keep the original file, and back it up.
Keep an independent record: a receipt, an email, a delivery log.
If you need verified time, use a tool built for it.

03Video

The timestamp on camcorder video

Video is where the stamp is in the file.

Every video camera in the app stamps the date into the picture, so it travels with the file to Photos or a message. The seven camcorders, from the Canon 514XL Super 8 to the Sony DCR-PC100 Mini DV, print the date in the face you chose. The VHS look is the one with a clock: a 12-hour time above the date, in its own type, whatever face you picked.

After the first 30 photos and videos, the seven camcorders and the VHS look are part of the $19.99 once unlock.

04Inside the app

See when a photo was shot

The time of day is kept, just not printed on the picture.

Open a photo in the app and tap INFO. The SHOT row shows the day, the date and the time, like Thu 13 Aug 2026 · 14:32. It comes from your phone's clock when you took the photo. It is for you, inside the app. It is not printed on the picture.

05The look

Date in the corner of a photo

In the app, that is the film-style part.

The orange digits, the faces and the layouts have their own page. To put the date into the picture itself, print the photo through a DATE BACK or TIMECODE frame from the Camera Roll. That makes a new copy and keeps your original.
