Current social media and photo sharing platforms miss the mark on genuine intimacy and creative connection. Rooted in UX research, this digital platform rethinks how we capture and share photos, shifting away from likes and followers and toward smaller circles built on thoughtful, personal expression. With tools to control shutter speed, aperture, leveling, and timed shots, Retina is designed to reconnect the tactile rituals of photography with the digital experience of curation and connection. Paired with a digital camera designed for the needs of today, the app invites users to slow down, reflect, and share with intention.
