Lapse, a startup that aims to recreate the vintage photography experience on smartphones, has raised $30 million in a new round of funding. The app, which has millions of users worldwide and over 100 million photos captured each month, offers a unique "development" process for photos. Despite facing criticism for growth tactics and privacy concerns, Lapse remains committed to offering a simpler alternative to traditional social media platforms, bridging the gap between past and present in the ever-changing world of smartphone photography.
