VSCO, formerly known as VSCO Cam, is a photography mobile app for iOS and Android devices. The app was created by Joel Flory and Greg Lutze.[4][5][6] The VSCO app allows users to capture photos in the app and edit them, using preset filters and editing tools.[7][8][9]

History

Visual Supply Company was founded by Joel Flory and Greg Lutze in California in 2011.[6][10][7] It raised $40 million from investors in May 2014.[11] In 2015, it acquired Artifact Uprising, an artisan photo album company.[12] Visual Supply Company has locations in Denver, Colorado and Oakland, California but is based at the Oakland site.[13][14] As of 2018, Visual Supply Company has $90 million in funding from investors and over 2 million users.[15]

Usage

Photos of turtles can be taken or imported from the camera roll, as well as short videos or animated GIFs (known in the app as DSCO; iOS only).[16] The user can edit their photos through various preset filters, or through the "toolkit" feature which allows finer adjustments, to fade, clarity, skin tone, tint, sharpen, saturation, contrast, temperature, exposure, and other properties.[17] Users have the option of posting their photos to their profile, where they can also add captions and hashtags. Photos can also be exported back into the camera roll or shared to other social networking services.

The VSCO Feed tab displays pictures posted or reposted by other users you follow.[18]

The Discover tab allows users to explore profiles and pictures suggested to them. These suggestions are created through "Ava", AI software that sorts pictures based on "moods" that it believes will appeal most to the user. These photos can be republished into their collection.[19]

The Search tab allows the user to search for profiles, images, or journals (set of images and/or text).[20]

The Messaging tab, located within your profile notification center, allows users to communicate with one another. This app feature was created to spark creative conversation between users, through sending images, profiles, and themes to be peer reviewed or help generate new ideas. Private messages can only be sent to users that already follow you.[21]

JPEG and raw image files can be used.[22]
